Intel's pretty motivated to do so for competitive analysis reasons even if they don't care about doing QA to benefit AMD.

- Iwan-Zotow 7y agoWell, I'm pretty sure Intel tests competitor product, and maybe even test MKL. So what? Suppose I (being Intel engineer, which I'm not) tested linalg+MKL on threadripper and found it to be 50% slower. Then WHAT? Ask management for more money for MKL team to make it faster on AMD? I don't think such proposal would fly.
- karavelov 7y agoI don't think anybody expects Intel to do anything in that case. What is expected is not to cripple performance when running on competitors CPUs.
