PyTorch Foundation Spotlight: Matt White

Key Takeaways

[music] The PyTorch Foundation is a vendor neutral home for originally the PyTorch framework, but now includes projects like VLM and Deep Speed [music] and most recently we announced Ray. These projects really fill out the entire open- source AI ecosystem from [music] data ingest and data prep-processing through to training and fine-tuning and model serving. What we're doing is really building this great community around these projects, but also imparting knowledge, training, [music] and working with academia to be able to ensure that students, researchers have access to the tools and knowledge they need to be able to be successful in the work they do. The movement is growing. It's getting stronger and companies are realizing the benefits of investing engineering resources into building open source projects. We have a really broad ecosystem of these members. We really just provide a central place for folks to come together, work on what is going to be the future of PyTorch, the PyTorch Foundation and its projects, as well as providing access into the infrastructure that's needed to test and make sure that platforms are performant. You're also going to help shape the future of the PyTorch Foundation and what open source AI looks like in the future for us. [music] Our members get opportunity to get early insight, get closer access to developers and engineers and to get eyes on road maps early. [music] This provides a lot of essential benefits to those looking to invest in open source AI. [music] If you're looking to join the PyTorch Foundation, this is really a great place to come and build relationships, get connected with your customers, get early feedback, and create really strong feedback loop for your business. >> [music]
