That's not such a big concern, LLMs run on all things today. It won't be that hard to make them work on AMD. Before 2020 we had much more architectural diversity.

The last time I tried getting Tensorflow / Pytorch to work on my good (and cheap) AMD card, I literally ended up just buying an Nvidia card.

I’m just one guy but my experience carries over to subsequent business decisions made by me, and there are many like me.

I'll throw my hat in the ring, I didn't buy an nvidia card, I simply gave up on trying to get it working.
Nvidia drivers on Linux aren’t a walk in the park either, but at least there’s a way to do it.
they've had a long time to get ML working as well as with CUDA and CuDNN, mostly failed attempts so far. How close are they?
