Enhancements to OpenCL support in llama.cpp include adding new kernel functions for quantized matrix operations, improving small-n MoE GEMV performance across multiple quantization types, optimizing Adreno GPU kernel floor settings, renaming functions for clarity, and disabling bin FA for small verification batches.

Migrating vLLM to the LibTorch Stable ABI

How vLLM migrated its CUDA build and compiled dependencies to the LibTorch Stable ABI, enabling compatible PyTorch upgrades without rebuilding vLLM.

The Wizard of Open Weights: Chris Alexiuk Makes AI Easy With Open Models

Chris Alexiuk has a simple rule about open source AI: If you believe in it, be loud about it. “We should be shouting about this technology from the rooftops,” said Alexiuk, a Toronto-based senior product research engineer in deep learning at NVIDIA who specializes in making open large language models (LLMs) practical for working developers. […]

Marvell’s early chipmaking gamble pays off amid AI demand

Eight years ago, chipmaker Marvell Technology Inc. decided to play leapfrog with nanometers, and its trajectory has been steadily upward since. In semiconductor manufacturing, nanometer designations identify generations of chipmaking technology, known as process nodes, rather than the exact physical dimensions of transistors. Advanced process nodes generally enable greater transistor density and improvements in performance […] The post Marvell’s early chipmaking gamble pays off amid AI demand appeared first on SiliconANGLE.

vulkan: Add a larger tile size for conv3d (coopmat2 only) (#29920) * vulkan: Add a larger tile size for conv3d (coopmat2 only) This adds a larger tile size, in practice it is only for coopmat2 where we don't need shared memory to store the output (would use more than 64KB). Add some additional representative backend tests. At least, this is what codex came up with from looking at sd.cpp Wan VAE. * only apply large tile size for newer driver versions **Website:** - **Attestations:** - **macOS/iOS:** - [macOS Apple Silicon (arm64)](https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp/releases/download/b11877/llama-b11877-bin-macos-arm64.tar.gz) - macOS Apple Silicon (arm64, KleidiAI enabled) [DISABLED](https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp/pull/23780) - [macOS Intel (x64)](https://github.com/ggml-org/llama
