This release adds support for Intel GPUs, and it deprecates old ggml-based backends which are by now superseded by llama.cpp (that now supports more architectures out-of-the-box). See also #1651.

Images are now based on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS instead of Debian bullseye.

Intel GPUs

There are now images tagged with "sycl". There are sycl-f16 and sycl-f32 images indicating f16 or f32 support.

For example, to start phi-2 with an Intel GPU it is enough to use the container image like this:

docker run -e DEBUG=true -ti -v $PWD/models:/build/models -p 8080:8080  -v /dev/dri:/dev/dri --rm quay.io/go-skynet/local-ai:master-sycl-f32-ffmpeg-core phi-2
