Accelerating Generative AI with PyTorch II: GPT, Fast
This post is the second part of a multi-series blog focused on how to accelerate generative AI models with pure, native PyTorch. We are excited to share a breadth of newly released PyTorch performance features alongside practical examples to see how far we can push PyTorch native performance. In part one, we showed how to accelerate Segment Anything over 8x using only pure, native PyTorch. In this blog we’ll focus on LLM optimization.

PyTorch compile to speed up inference on Llama 2
In this blog, we discuss how to improve the inference latencies of the Llama 2 family of models using PyTorch native optimizations such as native fast kernels, compile transformations from torch compile, and tensor parallel for distributed inference. Our approach results in 29ms/token latency for single user requests on the 70B LLaMa model (as measured on 8 A100 GPUs). We are excited to share our findings with the community and make our code available here.
