This is an AMD project motivated by the fact that NVIDIA has become the de facto standard for GPU computation in deep learning and machine learning applications.<p>TensorFlow, Torch, Theano, CNTK, CAFFE, and every other deep learning framework out there works out of the box with NVIDIA hardware via the CUDA stack, but not with AMD hardware, e.g., via the OpenCL stack.<p>Which is a shame, because the entire NVIDIA hardware + software stack is closed.<p>It would be great to see this new project succeed, and maybe even force NVIDIA to open source key or all components its stack down the road.<p>To the team at AMD running this project: if you are reading this, step one is to get built-in support into all major deep learning and machine learning frameworks.
