    What about graphics card not made by Nvidia? I run local models with AMD chipset and GPU. Works great.

    I doubt I’m the only one.

      Unfortunately, AMD’s presence in that market is only enough for Nvidia to say ‘see, we’re not a monopoly.’

      AMD has repeatedly tried to fund CUDA translation, on the down-low, and then instantly walked away whenever that came to light. They know Nvidia would pull a Sony and pile on losing court cases until the justified party is broke.

      Nvidia must be shattered over CUDA. We cannot allow computing to remain proprietary, for your own code.
