Pytorch VS tinygrad

fyi should work on most 40xx[1]

Sure, right here: https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/blob/main/torch/autograd/...

Here's the documentation: https://pytorch.org/tutorials/intermediate/forward_ad_usage....

> When an input, which we call “primal”, is associated with a “direction” tensor, which we call “tangent”, the resultant new tensor object is called a “dual tensor” for its connection to dual numbers[0].

*My post explains Dot, Matrix and Element-wise multiplication in PyTorch.

In PyTorch with @, dot() or matmul():

import torch # we use PyTorch: https://pytorch.org data = torch.tensor(encode(text), dtype=torch.long) print(data.shape, data.dtype) print(data[:1000]) # the 1000 characters we looked at earlier will to the GPT look like this

AI's Open Embrace Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are increasingly leveraging open-source frameworks like TensorFlow [https://www.tensorflow.org/] and PyTorch [https://pytorch.org/]. This democratization of AI tools is driving innovation and lowering entry barriers across industries.

Which label applies to a tool sometimes depends on what you do with it. For example, PyTorch or TensorFlow can be called a library, a toolkit, or a machine-learning framework.

In PyTorch with * or mul(). ` or mul()` can multiply 0D or more D tensors by element-wise multiplication:

When I was at Facebook, I wrote a Python script to extract shell scripts from GitHub Actions workflows, so we could run them all through ShellCheck: https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/blob/69e0bda9996865e319db...

PyTorch: An open-source deep learning framework that facilitates dynamic computational graphs, making it flexible and efficient for research and production.

Not sure if I completely understand what "Ryzen AI" does, but Tinygrad for example has some limited support for RDNA3[0]. It isn't quite there yet in matters of performance though, as you can read in the comments of that file.

There's also a small tutorial by AMD on how to use the WMMA intrinsic[1] using AMD's hipcc[2] compiler. Documentation is sparse kinda sparse, but the instruction set is not huge. The RDNA3 ISA guide[3] might also be helpful (and only a fraction of the pages are relevant.)

This post describes how I added automatic differentiation to Tensorken. Tensorken is my attempt to build a fully featured yet easy-to-understand and hackable implementation of a deep learning library in Rust. It takes inspiration from the likes of PyTorch, Tinygrad, and JAX.

what do you think about tinygrad? I think its a good example of growing and well written, (partially) well documented library with many close to reference implementations

The idea of model architecture making fast hardware design easier is what makes https://github.com/tinygrad/tinygrad so interesting.

Before we begin, make sure you have TinyGrad and the required dependencies installed. You can find the installation instructions here.

Try to get something like tinygrad[1] running locally, that way you can tweak things a bit run it again and see how it performs. While doing this you'll pick up most of the concepts and get a feeling of how things work. Also, take a look at projects like llama.cpp[2], you don't have to fully understand what's going on here, tho.

You may need some intermediate knowledge of linear algebra and this thing called "data science" nowadays, which is pretty much knowing how to mangle data and visualize it.

Try creating a small model on your own, it doesn't have to be super fancy just make sure it does something you want it to do. And then ... you'll probably could go on your own then.
