Starting the on-device runtime…
DistilBART CNN 6-6 is a 230M-parameter ONNX model that condenses a long passage into a short abstractive summary. On this page it runs entirely inside your browser: the 287 MB download comes straight from the Hugging Face repository “Xenova/distilbart-cnn-6-6” into your browser cache, and every inference after that executes on your own GPU through WebGPU. Expect a download of roughly a minute on a decent connection. It fits comfortably in the browser cache and in the memory of any GPU from the last few years, including laptop integrated graphics. It is an English-language model; expect quality to fall off sharply on other languages.
News-style summaries in a few sentences, and the smallest encoder of the DistilBART family — the fastest usable pick. In practice people reach for a model like this for shortening articles, reports and transcripts when the source is confidential or simply too long to skim.
Available precisions: q8 (8-bit) and fp32 (full precision). q8 comes first because it roughly halves the download at a quality cost you will struggle to measure on this class of model; fp32 is there when you want the reference numbers. It is this playground's default pick for the task, and Hugging Face records about 12k downloads a month for the repository — a good sign that it is maintained and that the ONNX export is not abandoned.
Because there is no inference server behind this page, there is nothing to rate-limit and nothing to bill: the only cost of running DistilBART CNN 6-6 here is the one-off 287 MB download, and once that is cached the page keeps working with the network switched off.

About 287 MB for the q8 build, including the tokenizer and config files the runtime also has to fetch — this is the whole payload, not just the weights file. It is downloaded once and then served from the browser Cache Storage API.
Yes, through the WebAssembly fallback, which is slower but works anywhere. WebGPU (Chrome or Edge 113+, Safari 26+) is what makes it feel interactive. On WASM, prefer the smaller quantized build.
No. Xenova/distilbart-cnn-6-6 is a public repository, so your browser fetches the ONNX files directly over HTTPS. There is no account, no key and no server in between.
No. The model weights are downloaded from Hugging Face to your browser once, and every inference after that runs on your own GPU through WebGPU. Your text, images and audio are never sent anywhere — hjLabs.in has no inference server and no way to see your input.
