Proposed change
Would love an indictor of whether a session has a GPU connected ( kind of like it currently shows the amount of RAM used and Total )
Alternative options
unfortunately right now this is how i would do this
import torch
device = (
"cuda"
if torch.cuda.is_available()
else "mps"
if torch.backends.mps.is_available()
else "cpu"
)
print(f"Using device: {device}")Who would use this feature?
Hubs launching on GPU - make sure you have GPU connected ?
(Optional): Suggest a solution
