There might be a subset of people, such as yourself, that looks for CUDA as a hard requirements when buying a GPU. But I think it's fair to say that Vulkan/Spir-V has a _lot_ of investment and momentum currently outside of the US AI bubble.

Valve is spending a lot of resources and AFAIK so are all the AI companies in the asian market.

There are plenty of people who wants an open-source alternative that breaks the monopoly that Nvidia has over CUDA.

I think the new AMD R9700 looks pretty exciting for the price. Basically a power tweaked RX 9070 with 32gb vram and pro drivers. Wish it was an option 6-7 months ago when I put my new desktop together.

Great. I’m with you there. There is no way that’s describing Apple though.

They’re not open source, for sure. But even setting that aside, they don’t offer anything like CUDA for their system. Nobody is taking an honest stab at this.

Triton is a very compelling alternative to CUDA for many applications. Many people know it from the outstanding Unsloth kernels.

Mojo has support for Apple Silicon kernels: https://forum.modular.com/t/apple-silicon-gpu-support-in-moj...
