# Runtime selection

## Detect Available Runtimes

When the plugin first starts, the AI Manager plugin auto-detects the available runtimes for the server.

After detection completes, a list of the available runtimes to choose from is usually shown

The default "Generic CPU" runtime is usually available; depending on the hardware platform or installed [AI Accelerators](/ai-manager-v6.1.4/ai-accelerators-support/supported-ai-accelerators.md), other options also appear. Currently Intel OpenVino, NVIDIA, Hailo, MemryX and more are available.
