====== Setting the Record Straight on "Discontinued" ======

You may see older internal notes claiming Intel fully killed Gaudi software and froze it at version 1.23.x. That's not quite right, and it matters for how we plan:

  * Intel only archived the **open-source** SynapseAI repo (a developer-facing GitHub project) in February 2025.
  * The **actual software we deploy** comes from Intel's private "Vault" repository, and it **kept shipping new releases** — 1.24.1 is the current one as of this writing.
  * Security patches are still possible; they're just slower and lower-priority than they used to be.

> **Bottom line:** treat Gaudi software as //slowing down//, not //frozen//. Keep checking for new releases every month (see [[gaudi-software-firmware|Keeping Software and Firmware Current]]) instead of assuming there's nothing left to check.
