This is big.
Native PyTorch on TPUs is here—and TorchTPU is officially open source.
Train and serve models using the tools you already know: @vllm_project, @sgl_project, @_llm_d_, TorchTitan, @huggingface, and @raydistributed.

TorchTPU is live today! In this video I explain how it works! youtu.be/u4n558Ul6w0?si=uNwG…
Replying to @Google
@Google & @Meta launch TorchTPU for native PyTorch support on Google TPUs!
🔥True eager execution & torch.compile backend
⚡Fast inference via vLLM & SGLang
🏋️Near-linear scaling for Llama 3 405B & Qwen 3 MoE via TorchTitan

Had a blast giving the demo. Stop by the booth to learn more about TorchTPU!

Join Rob Mulla at 10:40 AM for our sponsored demo: Unifying & Accelerating Open-Source LLM Serving on Google Cloud TPUs with TorchTPU!
See how it provides a unified backend for vLLM & SGLang, deploying SOTA models with minimal code changes.
Going to be in the Bay Area for PyTorchCon next week!!! Lots of cool things dropping and I’ll be presenting at the Demo Theater! Stop by the Google booth and hang out.
Great work by the team! TPUs + vLLM is a beautiful combination.
Remember when everyone was predicting 2025 to be the year of the AI agent? Kinda delivered I’m not going to lie.

The biggest plays of the 1pm games
#1: C.Ward intercepted by J.Holland (Titans at Giants). Giants went from 32% to 100% to win.
Which one hurt most?
#NFL

ALT Ranked list of the plays that moved win probability most: C.Ward intercepted by J.Holland, Giants +68 points; J.Burrow sacked, fumbles, recovered by S.Joseph, Steelers +37 points; D.Watson pass to H.Fannin for 14 yards, TOUCHDOWN, Browns +36 points; S.Darnold intercepted by K.Medrano, Commanders +34 points; S.Shrader 53 yard field goal is GOOD, Colts +33 points.

Google will launch an experimental AI satellite on Oct. 1 as part of Project Suncatcher, its effort to eventually build AI data centers in space.
The satellite will carry 4 $GOOGL TPUs and enough compute to answer simple Gemini queries from orbit while testing whether AI chips can reliably operate in space.
Google plans two more satellite launches in 2027 and is already designing potential fleets of 80+ satellites that could work together as an orbital AI data center.
Google estimates space-based data centers could become cost-competitive with terrestrial facilities by the mid-2030s.

ALERT ALERT ALERT 🚨 🚨 🚨 VLLM MAINTAINERS HAVE JUST SHOWN THAT TPUv7 CAN GET 700 tok/s/user, 56% BETTER PERFORMANCE THAN NVIDIA GB200 NVL72 THROUGH MEGAKERNEL OPTIMIZATION ON KIMI K3.
As we said awhile ago, the TPU externalization of software is full steam ahead. This is ultra important to follow the progress of this.
One year at Google today! Doesn't seem like its been that long- but looking back I was able to speak at Google Next and I/O, support a growing community of TPU Builders, and work closely on scaling TPU inference with vLLM. Lots of cool new things coming around the corner too.
Replying to @googlecloud
@googlecloud and Inferact are announcing today a partnership to make TPU a first-class citizen in @vllm_project.
This partnership puts both teams on one engineering roadmap to bring TPU to the broader open model ecosystem, optimizing vLLM as the agentic production serving engine for TPU:
• Production serving features and optimized kernels
• A native PyTorch path via TorchTPU
• Moving towards day-0 support for frontier model releases
We're also launching a community program: shared TPU capacity for open-source contributors, plus dedicated review and design help from the core vLLM maintainers at Inferact.
Everything this collaboration produces is open source. Read the full announcement: inferact.ai/news/google-tpu-…
