This illustrates the power of building a software ecosystem that supports the hardware you are building.
Nvidia has committed to CUDA and created an ecosystem. This has been a long term commitment. Meanwhile, Intel (new libaries/paradigms all the time) and AMD (software/drivers/libraries are an afterthought) have struggled in this arena.
- wongarsu 3y agoStrangely Intel manages to do this pretty well in other markets. For example for high-performance computing they have well established libraries like the mkl and, a Fortran compiler and a great C++ compiler. But when it comes to GPUs or accelerator cards they lack commitment, with most projects fizzling out.
