The article discusses the competition Nvidia faces from Intel and AMD in the GPU market. While these competitors have introduced new accelerators that match or surpass Nvidia's offerings in terms of memory capacity, performance, and price, Nvidia maintains a strong advantage through its CUDA software ecosystem. CUDA has been a significant barrier for developers switching to alternative hardware due to the effort required to port and optimize existing code. However, both Intel and AMD have developed tools to ease this transition, like AMD's HIPIFY and Intel's SYCL. Despite these efforts, the article notes that the majority of developers now write higher-level code using frameworks like PyTorch, which can run on different hardware with varying levels of support and performance. This shift towards higher-level programming languages has reduced the impact of Nvidia's CUDA moat, though challenges still exist in ensuring compatibility and performance across different hardware platforms.
This is why cuda-12 doesn't work with podman 3.4.4 on ubuntu 22.04 I think:
- Rootless configuration for nvidia container runtime
- Setup missing hook for nvidia container runtime
- Increase memlock and stack ulimits
- Rootless configuration for nvidia container runtime
