> AMD GPUs have near zero support in major ML frameworks.
That is incorrect - I have been running Tensorflow on RX5*0 cards for close to 2 years now. I even transitioned to TF2 with no problem. Granted, I have to be extra careful about kernel versions, and upgrading kernels is a delicate dance involving AMD driver modules and ROCm & rocm-tensorflow. My setup is certainly finicky, but to say AMD GPUs have near zero support is false.
