At this point, if it's fast, well supported and affordable, I'll buy it. I don't care who makes it so long as it's not nvidia
It's not going to be well supported unless the Nvidia and AMD are required to make their pre-2020 driver code public domain. Which is not going to happen.
Someone should just steal NVidia's driver code and run it through an LLM, because I heard that it magically makes everything public domain somehow!
Big if they've their own VRAM supply chain, oh well otherwise. Fuck OpenAI.
