📰 AMD Ryzen AI NPUs Are Finally Useful Under Linux For Running LLMs

Over the past two years AMD has developed the AMDXDNA accelerator driver in the mainline Linux kernel for supporting the AMD Ryzen AI NPUs. But when it comes to user-space software on Linux actually able to leave the Ryzen AI NPUs it's been... extremely limited with nothing really useful besides some niche bits of code. Even AMD's own software like their GAIA on Linux has used Vulkan with their iGPUs rather than any NPU support.

RIP DEBIAN LINUX

The only candidate to lead #Debian #Linux says her primary goal is to have "more women (both cis and trans), trans men, and genderqueer people."
