Accelerated PyTorch 2 Transformers
The PyTorch 2.0 release includes a new high-performance implementation of the PyTorch Transformer API with the goal of making training and deployment of state-of-the-art Transformer models affordable. Following the successful release of “fastpath” inference execution (“Better Transformer”), this release introduces high-performance support for training and inference using a custom kernel architecture for scaled dot product attention (SPDA).

Accelerated Diffusers with PyTorch 2.0
PyTorch 2.0 has just been released. Its flagship new feature is torch.compile(), a one-line code change that promises to automatically improve performance across codebases. We have previously checked on that promise in Hugging Face Transformers and TIMM models, and delved deep into its motivation, arc...
