The PS5LM project enables jailbroken PlayStation 5 consoles to run any GGUF model natively on the RDNA 2 GPU using llama.cpp's Vulkan backend. It transforms the console into a private local inference server, exposing OpenAI and Anthropic-compatible APIs for network devices while integrating decision models for low-latency structured outputs.
