The Intel Extension for PyTorch continues to be Intel's optimized downstream software for maximizing Intel CPU performance with the PyTorch framework. The Intel Extension for PyTorch ships with more AVX-512 VNNI optimizations, Intel AMX support, Intel XMX support for Intel dGPUs, and other improvements to maximize PyTorch capabilities on Intel hardware.
With the v2.3 extension, there are new Large Language Model optimizations with a new feature called the LLM Optimization API for module-level optimizations to commonly used LLMs, updating the bundled Intel oneDNN neural network library, adding TorchServer CPU examples, other LLM performance optimizations, and improved warnings and logging information.
Those making use of PyTorch on Intel platforms can find the updated open-source extension on GitHub.
