Meet the Developers of PyTorch Module Maintainers

Tuesday April 7, 2026 10:30 - 11:00 CEST

Open Platform

These sessions give participants an opportunity to meet some of the developers leading PyTorch to foster collaboration, gather feedback, and inspire contributions and collaboration .

PyTorch core modules (e.g. torch.autograd, torch.optim, torch.nn) form the foundation for most AI research and development, either directly through PyTorch or indirectly via higher-level framework. The core libraries prioritize API stability, backward compatibility, modular design, and simplicity.
