I would love to see that happen. But it will also depend on the outcome of Oracle v. Google regarding the copyrightability of APIs

  If they can provide an alternative towards the same goal they dont necessarily have to copy the API just make their own reliable API. I just wonder if the concept of CUDA is patented in regards to GPUs.

    They already have ROCm, just that it lacks Windows compatibility.

      Thanks! I was hoping somebody would steer me in the right direction if they had something. I wonder when AMD will focus on making things that are developer focused, I know for example that Intel has their own C++ compiler, not sure if AMD has one, though I heard it mentioned they've been contributing to LLVM. If the tooling developers use is enhanced for your hardware platform it will make it almost a no brainer to use for new projects.

        The politics is even more interesting. https://github.com/RadeonOpenCompute/ROCm/issues/892 https://github.com/RadeonOpenCompute/ROCm/issues/892
