Hell will freeze over, then go into negative Kelvin temperatures before you see nVidia agreeing in earnest to do so. They make too much money on NOT GETTING COMMODITIZED. nVidia even changed CUDA to make API not compatible with interpreters.
It's the same reason Safari is in such a sorry state. Why make web browser better, when it could cannibalize your app store?
- jpc0 1y agoSomehow I want to believe if you get everyone else in the room, and it becomes enough of a market force that nvidia stops selling GPUs because of it, they will change. Cough linux gpu drivers
- shmerl 1y agoYeah, Nvidia can get lost with their CUDA moat. But AMD should be interested.
- ashdksnndck 1y agoHmm. Maybe the opportunity would be more like AMD, Intel, and the various AI labs and big tech get together, and by their powers combined figure out a way to stop giving NVIDIA their margin?
- __s 1y agoThey tried. OpenCL, OpenMP
- pjmlp 1y agoBy making Web browser "better" do you mean more ChromeOS like? CUDA is great for Python as well. Maybe Intel and AMD should actually produce something worthwhile using.
- pawelmurias 1y agoBetter for running web apps.
- pjmlp 1y agoAs long as they are using Web standards, and not Chrome APIs, I do agree.

- ninkendo 1y ago> Whichever part makes Safari completely fail at properly rendering Jira What evidence do you have that this is Safari’s fault and not Jira’s fault? Give me a web browser and I will write code that will fail in it and work in other browsers.
