I can't use AMD (midwest.social)

It's necessary for my very important hobby of generating anime nudes.

CUDA isn't the responsibility of AMD to chase; it's the responsibility of Nvidia to quit being anticompetitive.

It's also not my problem either. I don't give a shit what nvidia or AMD does, I just want to be able to run AI stuff on my rig in as open-source a manner as is possible.

...in as open-source a manner as is possible.

And that means "not with CUDA," because CUDA is proprietary.

This is a semantic argument I don't feel like getting into. I don't give a shit what library it is -- I want AMD to be able to crunch pytorch as well as nvidia.

The fact that CUDA is proprietary to Nvidia isn't even slightly "semantics;" it's literally the entire problem this thread is discussing. CUDA doesn't work on AMD because Nvidia doesn't allow it to work on AMD.
