> CUDA isn't really used for new code.

I don't think this is particularly correct, or at least worded a bit too strongly.

For Nvidia hardware, CUDA just gives the best performance, and there are many optimized libraries that you'd have to replace as well.

Granted, new ML frameworks tend to be more backend agnostic, but saying that CUDA is no longer being used, seems a bit odd.
