I had the same thing. I took the reader through the journey of "why" they should want to work in this way, but apparently that's confusing. That actually the important part though. If people don't know why they are doing

If it's anything like other Moore Threads products, this is an Imagination Technology GPU. Similar to Apple's GPUs (They forked 5 years ago). Hardware is likely fine, but the drivers ... Well... I have no idea who's writing t

You don't mention whether PyTorch runs with ROCm though, and it does. RX 6xxx and 7xxx series GPUs do pretty well with it.

In an area so performance dominated people will spend the time porting to get the performance. I think this is especially true on the training side, because that's the area where companies have engineers waiting for hardware. Unfortuna

It's more of a 3.5km trench of fire spewing lava, rather than what most would think of as a volcano. The article says it won't be as disruptive as other iclandic erruptions. That's only true if you don't live in Iceland.

That is an odd article you've linked to. There seems to be several factors in play. 1. People observe that there is a disparity in the number of pages on Wikipedia about men and women in science. 2. This leads to a number of people se

Sorry, but I think a lot of people see it differently. Whilst I think the most wholesome message would be one of "everyone of all types working together to advance humanity", a lot of people seem to see it as a scorecard. +1 on yo
