- The PyTorch Foundation announced Cambricon as its newest Platinum Member.
- Cambricon is a long-standing PyTorch contributor following an "Upstream First" open source approach.
- Elton Gong, VP of Software Engineering at Cambricon, said AI computing infrastructure can only reach full potential through hardware-software co-optimization and a thriving open ecosystem: a unified framework interface means lower migration costs and a consistent toolchain, while a more general device abstraction means fewer downstream forks and easier maintenance.
