# Model Prediction with Ultralytics YOLO
<img width="1024" src="https://github.com/ultralytics/assets/raw/main/yolov8/banner-integrations.png">
YOLOv8 **predict mode** can generate predictions for various tasks, returning either a list of `Results` objects or a memory-efficient generator of `Results` objects when using the streaming mode. Enable streaming mode by passing `stream=True` in the predictor's call method.
## Introduction
In the world of machine learning and computer vision, the process of making sense out of visual data is called 'inference' or 'prediction'. Ultralytics YOLOv8 offers a powerful feature known as **predict mode** that is tailored for high-performance, real-time inference on a wide range of data sources.

## Why Use Ultralytics YOLO for Inference?
Here's why you should consider YOLOv8's predict mode for your various inference needs:
- **Versatility:** Capable of making inferences on images, videos, and even live streams.
- **Performance:** Engineered for real-time, high-speed processing without sacrificing accuracy.
- **Ease of Use:** Intuitive Python and CLI interfaces for rapid deployment and testing.
- **Highly Customizable:** Various settings and parameters to tune the model's inference behavior according to your specific requirements.
### Key Features of Predict Mode
YOLOv8's predict mode is designed to be robust and versatile, featuring:
- **Multiple Data Source Compatibility:** Whether your data is in the form of individual images, a collection of images, video files, or real-time video streams, predict mode has you covered.
- **Streaming Mode:** Use the streaming feature to generate a memory-efficient generator of `Results` objects. Enable this by setting `stream=True` in the predictor's call method.
- **Batch Processing:** The ability to process multiple images or video frames in a single batch, further speeding up inference time.
- **Integration Friendly:** Easily integrate with existing data pipelines and other software components, thanks to its flexible API.
Ultralytics YOLO models return either a Python list of `Results` objects, or a memory-efficient Python generator of `Results` objects when `stream=True` is passed to the model during inference:
