Intel announced to join the PyTorch Foundation to jointly promote the development of AI

Thanks to CTOnews.com netizen OC_Formula for the clue delivery! CTOnews.com August 14 news, Intel announced as a member of Premier to join the PyTorch Foundation.

Intel said it has been actively involved in PyTorch development for five years to help optimize PyTorch's CPU reasoning performance and thus improve AI performance on Intel processors.

▲ Source Intel Press release in PyTorch 2.0, Intel optimizes TorchInductor CPU FP32 reasoning, improves the reasoning and training performance of GNN in PyG, optimizes Int8 reasoning for x86 CPU platform, and uses oneDNN Graph API to speed up reasoning on CPU.

CTOnews.com query found that Intel currently has four PyTorch maintainers, including three active and one retiree, namely Mingfei Ma (Deep Learning and Software engineer), Jiong Gong (Chief engineer and Compiler Front end maintainer), Xiaobing Zhang (Deep Learning and Software engineer), Jianhui Li (Senior Chief engineer, now Honorary engineer) Recognized by the PyTorch community for their past contributions and expertise in artificial intelligence), they are responsible for maintaining CPU performance modules and compiler front ends, and have incorporated hundreds of PR upstream for PyTorch.
