It's also well known the driver is massive because there are hundreds of thousands of lines of auto-generated register access code in there. Not because it's inherently very complex.

And again you are wrong. It was debunked not a long time ago, and I think it was here on HN. The AMD drivers, kernel side, are still gigantic even excluding the generated register descriptions. Is this what we call a AI lie?

But where you may be right: it seems nvidia hardware programming interface is much cleaner than AMD one and may require much much less code.
