tenstorrent just opened its model compiler to everyone. tt-forge, the mlir-based stack built on the company's ai software, hit public beta on september 3, compiling pytorch, jax and onnx models for its hardware.

the compiler caught up to the chip's ambitions.

Context

Tenstorrent's TT-Forge page says TT-Forge is Tenstorrent's MLIR-based compiler stack for compiling, optimizing, debugging and extending models, and that it is now in public beta. It is designed to connect with OpenXLA, MLIR, ONNX, TVM, PyTorch and TensorFlow. TT-XLA, built on PJRT and StableHLO, handles JAX and PyTorch with multi-chip execution, and TT-Forge-ONNX is the ONNX frontend. The stack lowers to TT-NN and TT-Metalium.

How it compares

The page is undated, so September 3 as the beta date is unverified. The page also lists TensorFlow, which the note omits, and that omission is not an error. The license and exact hardware and model coverage were not read. Opened to everyone is the author's framing, and open-source flexibility is the page's own wording. Public beta status does not by itself establish which hardware is supported or which models compile. The compiler caught up to the chip's ambitions is the author's take.

Watch next

  • A dated release or blog post for the beta, model coverage lists and the license.
