2023 Nix Developer Dialogues
Sergei Kozlukov – Deep learning and AI applications in Nixpkgs
Sergei (@SergeK) is a doctoral student at the Aalto University, and participates in the effort to improve CUDA support in Nixpkgs. In this episode of the 2023 Nix Developer Dialogues we’ll see how Nixpkgs and NixOS fare as a platform for AI and deep learning applications, discuss Nixpkgs support for the ROCm and CUDA acceleration frameworks, look into driver support in NixOS, and see in how far NixOS is compatible with the “traditional” workflows involving pip
, conda
, and containers.
Check the announcement for a complete schedule!
