Didn't they abandon development of AMD related software?



Where did you get that? They just received a shitload of GPU's and it appears AMD is actively cooperating: https://twitter.com/realGeorgeHotz/status/168616581138659737...


I don't remember the exact tweet, but here's one discussion [1]. I guess something changed in the mean time.

[1] links to https://github.com/RadeonOpenCompute/ROCm/issues/2198 which has all the context (driver bugs, vowing to stop using AMD, Lisa Su's response that they're committed to fixing this stuff, a comment that it's fixed)


He had abandoned them for about a week but then talked to the CEO and that got things back on track IIRC


George Hotz: because eventually Elon Musk's false promises and over the top shenanigans just weren't doing it for you anymore...
