"""
Standalone inference test for ArcisVLM.
Tests that the model can generate coherent text given an image + question.
This is the FIRST thing to run after training to verify the model works.
Usage:
python3 scripts/test_inference.py --ckpt checkpoints/v4_stage3_final.pt --device cuda
python3 scripts/test_inference.py --ckpt checkpoints/v4_stage3_final.pt --device cpu
