alt Hacker NewsNot familiar with CUDA development, but doesn't CUDA support C++ ? Skipping Clang/LLVM and going "pure" C seems to be quite limiting in that case.

Real developer never depended on AI to write good quality code, in fact, the amount of slope code flying left and right is due to LLM.
Open-source projects are being inundated with PR from AIs, not depending on them doesn't limit a project.
That project owner seems pretty knowledgeable of what is going on and keeping it free of dependencies is not an easy skill. Many developers would have written the code with tons of dependency and copy/paste from LLM. Some call the later coding :)

Honestly I'm not sure how good is LLVM's support for AMD GX11 machine code. It's a pretty niche backend. Even if it exists, it may not produce ideal output. And it's a huge dependency.
