> Proprietary frameworks like CUDA and others are going to fall at some point, is just a matter of time.

CUDA outlived several attempts to offer an open alternative by now, starting with OpenCL.

It's really ironic for a hardware company that its moat, such as it is, is largely about software. And it's not even that software around CUDA is that great. But for some reason AMD is seemingly incapable of hitting even that low bar, even though they had literally decades to catch up.

Intel, on the other hand, is seriously lagging behind on the hardware end.
