Jailbroken PS5 runs Qwen 27B at 20 tok/s, turning 80M consoles into local AI servers
mhdfaran · x · 2026-10-14
- A jailbroken PS5 now runs Qwen 3 27B natively on its GPU via llama.cpp at 20 tokens/sec (dashboard shows 20.9 tok/s, 10.5/11.4 GiB memory used, 86W power draw).
- The project, PS5LM (originally by Mert Cobanov), has a fork called PS5LM Plus adding a native GPU app with a TV dashboard, model store, and an OpenAI-compatible API accessible from any device on the network.
- The author notes 20 tok/s beats human reading speed, matches the ballpark of a $4,000 DGX Spark, and that 80+ million PS5s are secretly capable AI servers — no cloud, no subscription, no data leaving the house.
