Gradio-Lite runs Gradio apps entirely in the browser via Pyodide

AI Impact Summary

Gradio-Lite uses Pyodide to run Gradio apps entirely in the browser, removing the need for server-side hosting. This shifts compute to the client and can reduce infrastructure costs while improving privacy since data stays on the user device. The approach incurs longer initial load times (5-15 seconds) and limited Python package support, so apps with heavy dependencies may require careful dependency management via micropip, and certain models may not be feasible in-browser.
