There was someone on reddit/ml who posted some pretty interesting numbers for training.
I think they have a lot of challenges ahead of them, but I’m still more optimistic about Plaid than AMD’s own efforts.
AMD says that they don’t care about ML[1], and their actions back that up.
Edit: and to be clear, I think comparing Keras+Plaid vs Keras+TF is an entirely valid thing to do. Lots of people work in Keras, and if you download a random NN code off github it likely to be Keras (or Pytorch now of course).
