HuggingChat (huggingface.co) Review

HuggingChat is Hugging Face's free chat application for interacting with open-source AI models. Its Omni router automatically selects a suitable model for each request, or users can manually pick from a large library of open-weight models hosted on the Hugging Face Hub for chat, reasoning, and multimodal tasks. The app is free to use without installation, and its source code is open. It demonstrates how open models perform on everyday prompts and serves as a front end to Hugging Face's model ecosystem for casual experimentation.
