From b46882881ce314414aac2d708a002007fd412a7e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Claude Date: Sat, 1 Aug 2026 15:15:46 +0000 Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Add TornadoVM and Ivar Grimstad found via governance review TornadoVM's v5.2.0-jdk21 release adds AI-specific GPU kernels (FP8/BF16 tensor-core matmul, CUTLASS provider) beyond its role as GPULlama3.java's GPU backend, warranting its own Inference & Training card. Ivar Grimstad (Java Champion, Jakarta EE Developer Advocate) actively speaks on bringing AI to Jakarta EE, complementing the existing Jakarta Agentic AI entry.
