Google is working on integrating CUDA directly into TensorFlow with the end goal being that you can use any GPU to do your computation. Basically a leapfrog over the inherently closed system that Nvidia has tried to implement.
I’m going to be glad when that finally happens. It’s not healthy for machine learning to be so dependent on a single provider like that.
- minxomat 7y agoIt's going to be oracle v Google all over again.
- monocasa 7y agoOracle v Google is still working its way through the court system.
- black_puppydog 7y agoby the time Google v NVidia will hit the highest courts, those will be stacked with AI overlords. I wonder what they'd think about being stuck in a proprietary API. :D
- nl 7y agoGoogle is working on integrating CUDA directly into TensorFlow What does this mean? And how does having CUDA in TF make it better for vendors that don't support CUDA? Could you post a link to this work?
- shmerl 7y ago> Google is working on integrating CUDA directly into TensorFlow How is it going to untie it from Nvidia? The only way to do it, is not to use CUDA, but something portable that can target any GPU.
