To complement the improvements in Better Transformer, we have also accelerated add+matmul linear algebra kernels for sizes commonly used in Transformer models. PyTorch BetterTransformer supports fastpath execution for common Transformer models during Inference out-of-the-box, without the need to modify the model.

The BetterTransformer feature set, first released in PyTorch 1.12, is stable. Stable Features (Stable) BetterTransformer API PyTorch is offering native builds for Apple® silicon machines that use Apple’s new M1 chip as a beta feature, providing improved support across PyTorch’s APIs.Įnable Intel® VTune™ Profiler’s Instrumentation and Tracing Technology APIsĪrm® Compute Library backend support for AWS GravitonĮxtend NNC to support channels last and bf16Īlong with 1.13, we are also releasing major updates to the PyTorch libraries, more details can be found in this blog. After installing PyTorch, a user will be able to import functorch and use functorch without needing to install another package. Previously, functorch was released out-of-tree in a separate package. Timely deprecating older CUDA versions allows us to proceed with introducing the latest CUDA version as they are introduced by Nvidia®, and hence allows support for C++17 in PyTorch and new NVIDIA Open GPU Kernel Modules. Additional improvements include accelerated add+matmul linear algebra kernels for sizes commonly used in Transformer models and Nested Tensors is now enabled by default. The BetterTransformer feature set supports fastpath execution for common Transformer models during Inference out-of-the-box, without the need to modify the model. We want to sincerely thank our dedicated community for your contributions. This release is composed of over 3,749 commits and 467 contributors since 1.12.1.

Beta includes improved support for Apple M1 chips and functorch, a library that offers composable vmap (vectorization) and autodiff transforms, being included in-tree with the PyTorch release. We deprecated CUDA 10.2 and 11.3 and completed migration of CUDA 11.6 and 11.7. We are excited to announce the release of PyTorch ® 1.13 ( release note)! This includes Stable versions of BetterTransformer.
