I am honestly shocked Nvidia has been allowed to maintain their moat with cuda. It seems like AMD would have a ton to gain just spending a couple million a year to implement all the relevant ML libraries with a non-cuda back-end.

AMD doesn’t really seem inclined toward building developer ecosystems in general.

Intel seems like they could have some interesting stuff in the annoyingly named “OneAPI” suite but I ran it on my iGPU so I have no idea if it is actually good. It was easy to use, though!

There are quite a few back and forth X/Twitter storms in teacups between George Hotz / tinygrad and the AMD management about opening up the firmware for custom ML integrations to replace CUDA but last I checked they were running into walls
