FIRMWARE-BASED ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI) MODEL AUTHORIZATION IN HETEROGENEOUS COMPUTING PLATFORMS

Systems and methods for firmware-based Artificial Intelligence (AI) model authorization in heterogenous computing platforms are described. In an illustrative, non-limiting embodiment, an Information Handling System (IHS) may include: a heterogeneous computing platform having a plurality of devices and a memory including a plurality of sets of firmware instructions, where the firmware instructions, upon execution by a respective device among the plurality of devices, enable the respective device to provide a firmware service, and at least one of the devices operates as an orchestrator configured to: receive a request for deployment, loading, extraction, launch, or release of AI model data; and at least one of: in response to a successful authentication of the request, allow the deployment, extraction, launch, or release of the AI model data; or in response to a failed authentication of the request, deny the deployment, extraction, launch, or release of the AI model data.
