Not to mention that the geniuses at Apple and Google continue to refuse to expose OpenCL or CUDA on their devices (or has this finally changed?).

- sitkack 12y agothey are working on it aanndd it kinda kills other market segments.
- programmer_dude 12y agoGoogle is actively trying to hide the presence of CUDA on Android in favour of render-script. It doesn't look like they are working on it.
- sitkack 12y agoSorry, I mean generically enabling GPGPU stuff, of course they don't want high performance apps that don't have to go through the store (WebGL / WebCL)
- varelse 12y agoIf that's the real reason Apple won't expose OpenCL and why Google has been aimlessly puttering with reinventing Ian Buck's Ph.D. thesis for the past 4 years, I just died a little inside. That said, IOS 8 exposes WebGL, no? http://www.theregister.co.uk/2014/09/17/after_20_years_apple_finally_enters_the_third_dimension/ http://www.theregister.co.uk/2014/09/17/after_20_years_apple... I say this because you could write a neural network engine entirely in WebGL given it's mostly SGEMM, convolutions, and RMW kernels.
