Together AI has launched a new autoscaling feature for large language model (LLM) inference on its platform. This feature allows deployments to scale based on specific metrics such as in-flight requests and GPU utilization, addressing the unique challenges of LLM serving. Traditional autoscaling methods often fail due to misleading metrics and lengthy cold starts, but Together AI's approach offers a catalog of inference-native metrics for more precise scaling. This advancement helps optimize resource allocation, especially in environments where GPU resources are limited.

This release quietly expands llama.cpp's hardware support to include Qualcomm's Hexagon NPU on Linux arm64, a significant step for local inference on Snapdragon devices. It also updates CUDA builds to version 13.4 and introduces ROCm 10.0 binaries, keeping the project aligned with the latest NVIDIA and AMD driver ecosystems. KleidiAI on Apple Silicon is temporarily disabled in this build, likely due to stability checks rather than a feature rollback. For developers targeting edge AI or diverse GPU stacks, this update ensures broader compatibility without requiring custom compilation.
