Heyo! I'm Adit, an undergrad in Finland. This is a preview of a side project I worked on last weekend. Essentially, Dragonfly is a LoRA fine-tune of Qwen3-VL with typed output heads that answers many questions about an image in one pass, with a probability for every answer.

Questions can't see each other, so each answer is the same as asking it alone, in any order. Instead of text outputs, Dragonfly answers with calibrated probabilities for the options you give itβ¦

Over the last few weeks I've really been using Codex and Claude to solve a lot of parallel tasks, across a lot of different projects.
