Cuda is a GPGPU paradigm. It was certainly not an investment in machine learning.

Seeing as this https://developer.nvidia.com/cudnn exists and is widely used I'd say that isn't really true.

But all major Deep Learning frameworks use Nvidia-s cuDNN library. They provide lots of sugar, but the central thing is developed (or paid for if you prefer) by Nvidia.
