It doesn’t matter the point is that they don’t break stuff. You can still compile CUDA today to work on old hardware and your binaries are guaranteed to have forward compatibility.

You don’t get that with ROCm, and this is why it’s garbage unless someone else abstracts all of that from you.

So if Microsoft is happy to maintain an ML as a service solution that just takes prompts and maybe data it’s not your problem.

But if you need to run your own workloads and these can include workloads that are well outside of “AI” and might not be even possible or remotely profitable to have a SAAS wrapper around them it’s all on you.
