The AI attached a debugger to the GPU driver and shimmed his local AI into working

The AI in Antigravity attached GDB to the GPU driver, reverse-engineered the kernel queue ioctl interface, and authored an LD_PRELOAD shim that got ROCm llama.cpp working on his Strix Halo.

How it works

  1. The AI in Antigravity attaches a debugger to the GPU driver
  2. Reverse engineers the kernel queue interface
  3. Authors a shim library
  4. His local inference engine works on the card

Why it’s worth knowing

Attaching a debugger to a driver is deep water; the agent swam.
