Description

Hello guys,
Thanks for this amazing repo, it is very useful for me.
I wanted to ask if there is interest in implementing methods like CLIP for image-language pretraining.
I understand that this might not be your actual focus and that web-scale-pretraining might be out of reach, however the paper https://arxiv.org/abs/2305.08675 shows that one can actually get relatively high zero-shot accuracies with effort roughly equal to imagenet pretraining.
