try this: right click on computer -> properties -> task manager -> display adapters -> right click on your graphic card (I have Intel (R) HD Graphics 3000) and update driver, disable device, enable device. It should do the job

That didnt solved my problem

And I have Intel (R) HD Graphics 3000 too

[justadudewhohacks]

This error comes from the tfjs-core WebGL backend. Could be some device issue, for example some android devices too have the same issue: https://github.com/tensorflow/tfjs/issues/952, #151.

Closing since this is not really something that face-api.js has control over, probably better to file an issue at tfjs. I would also recommend playing around with some tfjs examples first, to see whether this issue occurs and which ops might cause this issue.

@justadudewhohacks there's any workaround for this? In my case it's failing on all Samsung devices and Motorola.

That didnt solved my problem And I have Intel (R) HD Graphics 4000 too, I5 and 6GB

I use Ubuntu 22.04, Google Chrome 114.0.5735.133, and X.Org X server drivers for nVidia (default). It works using the option Launch using Discrete Graphics Card to open Chrome.
