There are quite a few back and forth X/Twitter storms in teacups between George Hotz / tinygrad and the AMD management about opening up the firmware for custom ML integrations to replace CUDA but last I checked they were running into walls

I don't understand why you would need custom firmware. It seems like you could go a long way just implementing back-ends for popular ML libraries in openCL / compute shaders
