The Moebius 0.2B image inpainting model, originally requiring PyTorch and NVIDIA CUDA, was successfully ported to run in a browser using WebGPU. The ported model allows users to mark regions of an image to remove and fill the space with a generated alternative. A demo of the browser-based model is available at simonw.github.io/moebius-web/.
Developer Simon Willison has successfully ported Moebius, a lightweight 0.2-billion-parameter image inpainting model, to run directly in web browsers using WebGPU. By leveraging the Claude Code AI coding agent, the originally CUDA-dependent Python model was adapted to utilize ONNX Runtime Web. A live demo of the tool is now available, allowing users to highlight and automatically remove unwanted regions from images directly in their browser.
