Nvidia's anti-competitive monopoly should be broken up over this API.
The fact AMD was visibly scared to even be associated with this project is a big fucking hint to regulators that CUDA is vendor lock-in tool which Nvidia guards at all costs.

Is that why they prevented it from being open sourced? I thought I read a while back that they just wanted to keep the code in-house.

I hope this becomes a thing so we can have more competition

I am really looking forward to having a viable alternative to NVIDIA. I would love buying Intel or AMD and being able to enable CUDA support on the GPU out of the box.
NVIDIA skimps out on VRAM needed for deep learning. If AMD could compete it would be huge as they often include more for cheaper.
Me too. I recently switched from an RTX 2080 to a 7900 XTX, which is way more powerful for games, but local LLM performance tanked without CUDA.
Trouble is... HIP doesn't support all of AMDs GPUs. It's only 7900s in the consumer line-up.
