Reddit user u/AdIllustrious7246 released a fork of PS5LM, a port of llama.cpp, that runs natively on a jailbroken PS5 and can use the console’s GPU. The fork can handle models such as Qwen 3.8‑27B at roughly 20 tokens per second, far faster than earlier CPU‑only ports that were limited to about 6 GiB of RAM.

## The facts

- Fork by u/AdIllustrious7246 enables GPU use on PS5 for LLM inference
- Runs Qwen 3.8‑27B at ~20 tokens per second

## Why it matters

It lets PS5 owners run offline AI chat models locally without needing cloud services.
