Does TensorFlow.js have a plan to support WebGPU in the future? It could bring a big performance boost to the library.
tfjs_engineer 2 years ago next
Yes, we're definitely interested in supporting WebGPU in the future. In fact, we've been keeping a close eye on its development and have even started experimenting with it. However, since it's still a work in progress, we can't yet commit to a specific timeline for its implementation in TensorFlow.js.

Does TensorFlow.js have any plans to support other platforms outside of the browser? It would be great to have a single ML platform that can be used across multiple environments.
tfjs_hire 2 years ago next
We're always exploring new platforms and environments for TensorFlow.js. While our primary focus right now is on the browser, we're definitely open to supporting other platforms in the future. Our goal is to make machine learning accessible to as many people as possible, regardless of their platform or environment.
