    For reasons unknown to me, AMD decided this year to discontinue funding the effort

    Presumably they did not want to see Cuda becoming the final de-facto standard that everyone uses. It nearly did at one point a couple of years ago, despite the lack of openness and lack of AMD hardware support.

      i heavily rely on CUDA for many things i do on my personal computer. If this establishes itself as a reliable method to use all the funky CUDA stuff on AMD cards, my next card will 100% be AMD.

      If there were a drop in equivalent to CUDA with AMD, I’d have several AMD cards, right now.
