PyTorch 2.10 Release Live Q&A
2026-01-28 11:00 - 12:00
The PyTorch 2.10 release features a number of improvements for performance and numerical debugging. On Wednesday, January 28th, Andrey Talman, Nikita Shulga, Shangdi Yu, and Ashok Emani gave a brief update on the release and answered your questions. Watch here. Topics:

Release cadence updates link.
TorchScript deprecation
Torch Compile Support for Python 3.14
Continuing support Wheel-Variant in release 2.10. PEP 817 was published. Link
DebugMode and tlparse
Deprecating Volta support for cuda 12.8 builds, starting release 2.11. Link
Remind about Linux aarch64 CUDA binaries availability since release 2.9. The instructions for these are now visible on getting started page
TorchAudio migration finalization: TorchAudio 2.10 marks the finalization of the ongoing migration, and should be the last major release in the foreseeable future. Based on user feedback, some critical optimized ops like lfilter, which were originally slated for deletion, are preserved!
Intel GPUs support: Expand PyTorch support to the latest Panther Lake on Windows and Linux by enabling FP8 (core ops and scaled matmul) and complex MatMul support, and extending SYCL support in the C++ Extension API for Windows custom ops.

Inside Helion: Live Q&A with the Developers
2025-12-11 11:00 - 12:00
Helion — a new Python-embedded domain-specific language (DSL) for wiring high-performance ML kernels — is built to compile down to Triton. Helion raises the level of abstraction for kernel authoring with PyTorch-centric syntax, making it dramatically easier to write correct, fast, and portable kernels. Its innovative autotuning system explores thousands of candidate Triton kernels to find the most performant implementation. Thus, automation handles complex, hardware-dependent details to ensure portability across different hardware architectures.
We dove into:

The design philosophy and architecture of Helion
How autotuning delivers state-of-the-art performance across GPUs
What’s next on the roadmap — and how you can get involved

The Free Puppy: How to Responsibly Leverage Open Source AI
2025-11-06 09:00 - 10:00
Over the past few decades, the trajectory of AI and open source software has evolved in tandem, but with the recent explosion of LLMs and foundation models, “open source AI” has become a catch phrase meaning so many things to so many different people. Some definitions of open source AI are so specific that they leave out hugely popular projects; other definitions focus specifically on models, and many AI projects marketed as open source don’t actually fit within the industry definition of open source. With so many different definitions floating around, how can you know what you are getting when you engage with open source AI?
In this talk, we will review what makes something open source from an industry perspective, what to look for when evaluating the health, stability, and practicality of open source AI projects (or any open source project for that matter), and why it’s so important to ensure transparency and explainability when deploying open source AI applications. In addition, in this webinar, we will cover licensing considerations, how to evaluate the health of open source projects, how and when to leverage open source, and the importance of community.
