AMD has rocm and added a CUDA compat layer to it.
Nvidia is in the limelight, but their product (GPU compute) is a commodity.
Once someone else has it cheaper, then it’s a race to the bottom.
- pests 3y agoThey did not add a compat layer, where did you get this? The recent news was about AMD giving up on that path.
- dartos 3y agohttps://github.com/vosen/ZLUDA https://github.com/vosen/ZLUDA They still funded it and it was created.
- pests 3y agoThey only reason it is open source is because they decided not to go this direction. They gave it to us instead of tossing it into the trash. I don't know what you mean to imply by that.
- dartos 3y agoThere’s nothing to imply. AMD funded a CUDA compatibility layer that now exists. Just because they don’t want it doesn’t mean it just vanishes or stops working.
