llama.cpp on a jailbroken PS5: run any GGUF model natively on the console, starting with Qwen 3.8

PS5LM is a homebrew app that ports llama.cpp to a jailbroken PlayStation 5, loading GGUF models onto the console's RDNA 2 GPU via its Vulkan backend. It serves OpenAI- and Anthropic-compatible APIs to your network, runs decision models, supports vision models, and shows requests and console stats on the TV — a private, no-PC model server under your couch.

Why now: It's a novel hack — running local LLMs natively on a game console — and got attention on Hacker News as a demo of llama.cpp's flexibility on unexpected hardware.

Who it is for: Hobbyists with a jailbroken PS5 who want a self-hosted, private local LLM server at home.
