Its really time for some competition. Either AMD or some chinese company like 'more threads' need to speed up and get something on the market to break the Nvidia dominance. Nvidia is showing already some nasty typical evil behavior that has to be stopped. I know not easy with fully booked partners at Samsung/tmct/etc

https://tinygrad.org is trying something around this; currently working on getting AMD GPUs to get on MLPerf. Info on what they're up to / why is mostly here - https://geohot.github.io/blog/jekyll/update/2023/05/24/the-t... - though there are some older interesting bits too.

AMD / Intel should be throwing them 10's or 100's millions (or jsut straight up human hours of work) to make that work. If / when it does it would be 10's or 100's of billions of (additional) market cap for them.

So why doesn't AMD invest more in quality software? Everybody knows it's holding them back. Right now a tiny corporation has to jump through hoops to do work they could have done at any point in the last decade. Why don't they pull a great team together and just do the work, if the pay off is that big?

They are. FSR tests side by side with DLSS most people can’t tell the difference or pick FSR. Then you tell them which is which and they turn around and say DLSS is better. People are just bias to Nvidia.

They haven’t had gfx card driver issues in years now and people still say “oh I don’t want AMD cos their drivers don’t work”.

Can I run pytorch on it?

Yes, but you need ROCm which mostly only runs on AMD's professional cards and requires using the proprietary driver rather than the wonderfully stable open source one.

ROCm only officially supports a handful of server or workstation cards, but it works on quite a few others.

I've enabled nearly all GFX9 and GFX10 GPUs as I have packaged the libraries for Debian. I haven't tested every library with every GPU, but my experience has been that they pretty much all work. I suspect that will also be true of GFX11 once we move rocm-hipamd to LLVM 16.
