AMD ROCm: A Wasted Opportunity
The way ROCm has turned out is such a shame. It really is effectively an advertisement for CUDA and served exactly that purpose for me. Even Intel&#x27;s oneAPI stuff seems to be heading in a more viable direction.<p>I feel like AMD for some reason doesn&#x27;t understand that support for GPGPU on the consumer stack is important to eventually getting adoption in the enterprise space. CUDA is so convenient in part because as long as you have an NVIDIA card it&#x27;ll probably be usable for testing, even if not necessarily optimal or fast. Then, once confidence has been built about its usability, a more serious investment can be made into getting the more powerful cards.
