- What it is
- Google's Chrome team announced that WebGPU, the browser graphics API that Transformers.js can use for machine learning, is available by default in Chrome 113. The post lists the platforms in the first release and says others would follow.
- How much weight it carries
- Official Google developer post about Chrome's own release. It dates from 2023, so the platform list shows the first release, not the current support, which the post says would expand later.
Facts taken from this source
- Chrome 113 made WebGPU available on ChromeOS devices with Vulkan, Windows devices with Direct3D 12 and macOS, and Google said Linux and Android would come later.
