That's a big if. The initial set up is a pain.
And even once the initial set up is done, ML software is constantly changing/breaking. You're forced to reinstall a new proprietary Nvidia driver, which is then incompatible with the old version of PyTorch the model uses... But that other model requires a newer PyTorch... It's a pain... The fact that there's a dependency on GPU driver versions is ridiculous.
- disgruntledphd2 4y agoThis should apparently improve, as at least CUDA no longer depends on specific versions (thank god). I was pleasantly surprised last time I installed it.
- snek_case 4y agoI think that's a good step but it's still a very brittle ecosystem IMO. Needs time to mature.
- disgruntledphd2 4y agoCompletely agreed, but it's probably the Python part that's causing the problems, tbh.
