AMD vibe codes its way past the CUDA moat with ROCm.AI
Low-level programming interfaces like CUDA and ROCm remain key to unlocking a chip’s true potential. REG AD googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('labrador/thereg/article/desktop/b'); }); However, hand tuning GPU kernels and general matrix-matrix multiplication (GEMM) routines to take full advantage of the silicon isn’t exactly something everyone has the experience necessary to do. But as it turns out, many of the same models developers are trying to optimize for are surprisingly good at it.
