Technical tracks include Core PyTorch, kernel engineering, compilers, distributed training, and inference optimizations. Deadlines: June 7: Session CFP Closes July 20: Speaker Notifications July 26: Poster Submissions Due Oct 20–21: PyTorch Conference North America Register by April 10 at 11:59 PM PDT to secure Super Early Bird discounted rates. 🔗 Details: https://lnkd.in/gX4AVkYv #PyTorch #OpenSource #MachineLearning #PyTorchCon #AI

The PyTorch Ecosystem Working Group is happy to welcome several new projects to the PyTorch Ecosystem Landscape, including PhysicsNeMo, Unsloth, ONNX, and KTransformers. The PyTorch Ecosystem Landscape is a map of the innovative open source AI projects that extend, integrate with, or build upon PyTorch. Welcome to the newest PyTorch Ecosystem Landscape projects! If you’re developing a project that supports the PyTorch community, you’re welcome to apply for inclusion in the Ecosystem landscape. 🔗 Read the full blog: https://lnkd.in/gYcubp7v #PyTorch #OpenSource #AI

“PyTorch is probably the most important piece of open source software most enterprise technology leaders have never had a governance conversation about. Every GPU launch, every major model release – somewhere in the stack, there it is.” In conversation with Alyx M. at KubeCon Europe 2026, Mark Collier detailed why neutral governance is the prerequisite for this level of industry-wide adoption. As specialized hardware from startups and hyperscalers enters the market, PyTorch and vLLM serve as the essential layers of enablement that make these options viable for production. By hosting PyTorch, vLLM, DeepSpeed, and Ray, PyTorch Foundation ensures the industry has a reliable, open path from training to inference. Hardware Portability: PyTorch enables competition across silicon, including AWS Trainium, Google TPUs, and emerging accelerators, by providing the necessary layer of enablement to make hardware perform for AI workloads. Neutral Governance: The trademark is held by PyTorch Foundation, not any single company. This provides a contractual guarantee that the license remains open and technical leadership is earned through contribution. Industry Standard: When every major model ships with PyTorch support on day one, it is the industry voting with its dependencies. Understanding who governs PyTorch is due diligence for any organization making serious AI infrastructure decisions, belonging in the same conversation as cloud vendor selection or Kubernetes distribution choice. 🔗 Read the full article by Alyx MacQueen at diginomica: https://lnkd.in/gaKW-gUC #PyTorch #vLLM #Ray #DeepSpeed #OpenSource #KubeCon #CloudNativeCon
