For testing purposes I want to disable AVX512 support for OpenVino on a machine that supports AVX512. Is there a way to do it in the installation process?

Hi @marsupialtail 

We don't think this is possible to disable AVX512 instruction support during the OpenVINO installation process. The only options would be to disable AVX512 capabilities on BIOS or kernel level (if supported) or use non-AVX512 CPU emulation mode e.g. with QEMU/KVM or Software Development Emulator (SDE) method.
Also, please take a look at this article that describes OpenVINO use-case with VNNI and AVX512.

Hope this helps.
Thank you.
