AI overview

Hugging Face has added native TPU support across Transformers, Diffusers, and Kernels through TorchTPU, a native PyTorch backend, removing the need for Optimum TPU when running Transformers and Diffusers models on TPUs. Models can target the hardware with device_map="tpu" or pipe.to("tpu"), with optional compilation and distributed execution. Hugging Face reports that 96.5% of tests running on TPU pass and that 19 of 34 reported TorchTPU issues have already been fixed.
