NVIDIA has unveiled Cosmos 3, an open model family designed to advance physical AI by integrating vision reasoning, world generation, and action prediction. This omni-model allows developers to simulate future states and generate synthetic data, providing a versatile foundation for specialized AI systems in robotics, autonomous vehicles, and vision AI. Cosmos 3's open nature under the Linux Foundation’s OpenMDW 1.1 license enables teams to adapt the models to their specific needs, fostering innovation and collaboration across industries. This development marks a significant step in making AI systems more adaptable and efficient.

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.
