For those focusing on large language model development, Hugging Face and AMD have made significant strides to provide out-of-the-box support on AMD GPUs. Our combined efforts include the ability to run HF transformer models without the need for code modifications allowing for seamless operation. On top of native support, additional acceleration tools like ONNX models execution on ROCm-powered GPU, Optimum-Benchmark, DeepSpeed for ROCm-powered GPUs using Transformers, GPTQ, TGI and more are supported. Additionally, for those applying for the PC AI contest category to develop on AMD Ryzen AI Powered PCs, we are continuously growing our pre-trained model zoo to support a wide variety of models enabling developers to get started in building AI applications swiftly.
