# Learn PyTorch

Code experimenting with PyTorch using Intel architecture (i.e., Intel Core Ultra processor with iGPU) or `xpu`.

After installing `ipex-llm` which is required to use Intel GPUs (see documentation in [Links](#Links)), you can should have access to `conda` and be able to `import torch` normally.

**Important:** Set the necessary environmental variables:

```bash
unset OCL_ICD_VENDORS
export SYCL_CACHE_PERSISTENT=1
export SYCL_PI_LEVEL_ZERO_USE_IMMEDIATE_COMMANDLISTS=1
```
