This kind of stuff is infuriating just on the "right to own stuff" level. The thing is, I'd like to do general purpose gpu computing. Not conventional AI at all but if it has a driver that nerf some things, that gives me... pause. What is being nerfed and how. Nvidia's proprietary drivers for Linux are already annoying. The spirit of "we'll be screwing each device for anything but what we consider it's purpose" just rankles.
