Connecting traces to hardware cycles can make optimization less of a black box. Showing the original bottleneck, suggested change, and measured effect on the same workload would make the AI-assisted path easier to validate.

first-class profiling is the real moat for alternative silicon

I'd like to see how the AI-assisted analysis gets from a hardware trace to a suggested fix.

PyTorch 2.13 brings FlexAttention to Apple Silicon, cuts peak memory by up to 4× for large-vocabulary models with nn.LinearCrossEntropyLoss, and updates distributed training, compilation, profiling, and on-device inference. Our live Q&A examined CUDA version support, CuTeDSL in TorchInductor, Python 3.15, ExecuTorch, torch.compile, and plans for PyTorch 2.14. Andrey Talman (Meta), albanD (Meta), and Piotr Bialecki (NVIDIA) joined moderator Chris Gottbrath (Gottbrath Technologies). This clip explains how FlexAttention compiles kernels specialized for the requested masking pattern, allowing them to skip unnecessary computation. It also covers speedups of up to approximately 12× over SDPA in tested sparse configurations and a deterministic backward path on CUDA that removes one source of nondeterminism in gradient computation. 🔗 Watch the full PyTorch 2.13 Release Live Q&A:

Chips are the foundation of every AI experience. That's why understanding the hardware behind the software has never mattered more. When you ask a chatbot a question or generate an image, there's a physical chip somewhere doing the heavy lifting. For most of computing history, that was a CPU—the "brain" of a computer—great for general tasks needed to run software and operating systems. AI is more complex: for workloads called training and inference, AI needs to perform trillions of calculations in parallel. That's where AI accelerators come in. Purpose-built accelerators can deliver significantly better performance and efficiency than general-purpose chips. Amazon Web Services Trainium chips are an example—purpose-built for AI training and inference. New chips for a new era. ⬇️

Find Qi Zhou of Google, Colin Taylor and Angela Yi of Meta at PyTorch Conference North America in San Jose where they will discuss how they focused on making the existing SGLang & vLLM infrastructure work natively on TPU, preserving the schedulers, batching systems, OpenAI-compatible APIs, and torch.compile workflows already familiar to GPU users. Because the serving engines remain upstream, new models and features can run on TPU without requiring separate TPU-specific implementations. Learn more about how it works across the stacks & what they learned running this in production, including compile time, device placement under tracing, KV cache layout, and cross-chip collectives.
