Open-source PS5LM that loads a language model onto a jailbroken PS5 and uses it as a home server (github.com)

Writing language: KoreanRead in the original language

- PS5LM is an app that loads language model files onto the graphics chip of a jailbroken PlayStation 5 and runs them. Jailbreaking means unlocking features the manufacturer has blocked. The original says that no PC, cloud, or account is needed while it runs. - The original says that laptops, phones, and coding tools on the same network can connect to the console's address on port 8081 and call the model through APIs in the OpenAI and Anthropic formats. It also says Claude Code can be connected. - The performance figures are values the development team that made the repository wrote in the README. The original says that on PS5 Slim, the Qwen 3.5 9B model (Q4_K_M compression method) produces about 55 tokens per second, and the 0.8B model produces about 207 tokens. The original does not give details of the measurement conditions.

O: It is useful for a developer who keeps a jailbroken PS5 at home and wants to test local models without an external cloud by connecting a laptop coding tool to the console address 8081 port. X: The performance figures of 55 tokens and 207 tokens are values the development team listed in the README, so the measurement conditions and independent verification are not confirmed in the original article. First, consider the condition that a jailbroken device and multiple payloads are needed for firmware 7.00 through 13.60.
