Translating CUDA kernels to ROCm (or any other ecosystem, tbh) is going to become trivially easy with AI. Not saying that code is the only glue that Nvidia has when it comes to their ecosystem, but it’s certainly a large part of it.

It's not that difficult at the moment. Don't know why you would need an LLM to translate between two nearly identical language extensions.

Optimization is different, but that's not really a translation level task.

If an LLM can do a rote task for me, I don’t see why I wouldn’t use it

Because it's more expensive and more likely to fuck it up.
