RISC-V has made significant strides as an open instruction set architecture for embedded, edge, and server-class systems. However, enabling modern AI workloads: such as speech-to-text, LLM inference, and multimodal generation on RISC-V remains a major technical challenge, particularly in resource-constrained environments.

In this session, we share our ongoing efforts to enable real-world AI applications on RISC-V platforms based on a 64-bit 8-core RISC-V AI SoC. We explore the porting, optimization, and runtime behavior of popular open-source AI workloads like Whisper, VLC with Speech-to-Text, webLLM, and text-to-image generation, running entirely on RISC-V hardware.

We will also discuss the implications of DSP instruction emulation for RISC-V vector standard RVV 1.0, as well as the use of Vector DSP and Vulkan and OpenCL backends, and how developers can contribute to or replicate these experiments. Our goal is to provide a transparent, reproducible pathway for the open-source community to extend AI capabilities on emerging RISC-V platforms.
