# IBM AI Platform

IBM's AI Platform is a collection of components developed out of IBM Research used for development, inference, training, and tuning of foundation models leveraging PyTorch native components. 

## Optimizations

In this platform, we aim to bring the latest optimizations for pre-training/inference/fine-tuning to all of our models. A few of these optimizations include, but are not limited to:

- fully compilable models with no graph breaks
- full tensor-parallel support for all applicable modules developed in fms
- training scripts leveraging FSDP
- state of the art light-weight speculators for improving inference performance

## Usage

Components such as speculative decoding have been deployed to [vLLM](https://docs.vllm.ai/en/latest/getting_started/examples/mlpspeculator.html)

## Repositories

- [foundation-model-stack](https://github.com/foundation-model-stack/foundation-model-stack): Main repository for which all AI platform models are based
- [fms-extras](https://github.com/foundation-model-stack/fms-extras): New features staged to be integrated with our AI platform
