Hip is basically cudas language and is almost source compatible. I believe they have a tool to convert between them. Really minimal hit.
The problem is most people are using NVIDIA libraries which ship with proprietary binary blobs, so good luck running that on your AMD GPU. Until they make all these extra libraries as well, they're SOL.. NVIDIA has zero reason to port all their IP to AMD or Intel.
One would imagine that they already have internal ports of their software to both these platforms to do benchmarking. Again, the technical problem is simply one of software.
Going back to the topic at hand. CUDA language and runtime are easy. Both amd and Intel have competitors here. They don't have the libs. The libraries contain thousands of variants of hand optimized code. Good luck.
