Almost as dead as its original creator, Steve Jobs, who only summoned it into existence because Jensen Huang leaked a deal between AAPL and NVDA ahead of him.

Almost as dead as its original creator, Steve Jobs, who only summoned it into existence because Jensen Huang leaked a deal between AAPL and NVDA ahead of him. OpenCL could have been killer on mobile, and it could have delivered low-power machine learning and computation there all the way back in 2012, but both AAPL and GOOG went out of their way to cripple its use despite many of the mobile GPUs having hardware support for it. We all lost there IMO.
