Making AI Easy with YOLOv8
You will learn about Ultralytics YOLOv8, how it works, how it compares to previous YOLO models and more.
After 2 years of continuous research and development, we are thrilled to introduce Ultralytics YOLOv8. Building on the success of countless experiments and previous architectures, we've created models that are the best in the world at what they do: real-time object detection, classification, and segmentation. Faster, more accurate, and simpler, YOLOv8 places the power of AI in the hands of everyone.

Glenn founded Ultralytics in 2014 to lead the United States National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) antineutrino analysis efforts, culminating in the miniTimeCube experiment and the world's first-ever Global Antineutrino Map published in Nature. A deeper realization of the profound particle physics mysteries that evade us led him to Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) as the best solution for mankind to exceed the limits of our own minds and to one day truly understand the universe and our place in it. Today he's driven to build the world's best vision AI as a building block to a future AGI, and YOLOv5, YOLOv8, and Ultralytics HUB are the spearheads of this obsession.
