Exploring AI Image Markup with Boss Man and Llava 1.6

Lately, Boss Man has been experimenting with a new kind of digital magic—using AI to create descriptive markup on scanned images. Powered by the Llava 1.6 model with 9 billion parameters, this tool doesn't just recognize what's in a photo—it explains it, enhancing scanned visuals with intelligent, human-readable descriptions.

The results are pretty wild—and we’ve got galleries to prove it. Check out the links below to see how Boss Man's dive into AI image processing is turning flat scans into fully annotated storytelling tools.

 

Here is a link to some images obtained from the Yakima Valley Museum:
