I don't know if they'll ultimately succeed or not, but they at least seem to be putting genuine effort into this. ROCm releases are coming out at a relatively nice clip[1], including a new release just a week or two ago[2].
Yeah, AMD is doing more with ROCm. But are they catching up to Nvidia, or just not falling behind as fast as before? Only time will tell
It's a fair question. And I agree, all we can do is wait and see how things play out. I am definitely rooting for AMD here though, for multiple reasons.
