Given that PyTorch supports AMD cards with ROCm support, I'm curious why would you be coding in CUDA (very low level!) as opposed to PyTorch ?

Not everything is DNNs and tensors...

As for the Stable Diffusion thing, a silly edge case - because MIOpen (and therefore PyTorch-on-ROCm) doesn't work on Windows yet (they're slated to ship it next month, I think).

Sure, but you could use PyTorch for cuBLAS/cuRAND etc type functionality too.
