A bit sad hobbyist have to resort to such measures to get tinkering, not to mention the initial capital needed. We're all slaves to Nvidia's VRAM monopoly until AMD or Intel steps in and release a competitive alternative with beefy vrams.
- loudmax 3y agoBeefy VRAM is a start, but Nvidia's real moat is CUDA. If PyTorch runs on AMD's ROCm, or the Intel equivalent, as well as it runs on CUDA, then we'll see some real competition here. Chris Lattner's Mojo programming language may present an alternative here, but it's still closed source.

- 3abiton 3y agoHow will Mojo solve what is essentially a GPU driver issue (ROCm vs cuda)? AMD's track at supporting GPU computing is very poor to be trusted so far.
