There's a chance they (maybe specifically the lawyers) know something we don't. I mean, maybe they are absurdly incompetent in listening to feedback, while at the same time achieving technically great things in hardware. But after so many years and seeing all the AI money going to the competitor... That seems less and less likely every day.
- orbital-decay 3y agoWhat might that be, for example? "Organizationally unable to make competent software, perfectly able to make great hardware" seems to be the common case with hardware companies, if not de facto standard. Exceptions are rare.
- viraptor 3y agoApart from "trying to implement this will cost us more in CUDA API copying lawsuits then it could earn", I don't know. But it's not just that they can't make competent software. It's that everyone tells them they should try, that it looks like a pile of money ready to pick up, that people try doing it on their own... and AMD does nothing. They're not even taking the chance to fail/succeed. Can you imagine that Lisa Su doesn't get asked about this at least once a week?
- nextaccountic 3y agoThey are already trying to copy CUDA API with rocm and HIP. If this is lawsuit worthy, they may already be hit with a lawsuit at any moment.

- phero_cnstrcts 3y agoWell, the CEO of AMD and the CEO of that competitors are the in the same family. Literally. Maybe they just don’t care which entrance the money takes.
