Only if it runs CUDA, MLX / Metal isn't comparable as ecosystem.

People that keep pushing for Apple gear tend to forget Apple has decided what industry considers industry standards, proprietary or not, aren't made available on their hardware.

Even if Metal is actually a cool API to program for.

It depends what you're doing. I can get valuable work done with the subset of Torch supported on MPS and I'm grateful for the speed and RAM of modern Mac systems. JAX support is worse but hopefully both continue to develop.

CUDA is equally proprietary and not an industry standard though, unless you were thinking of Vulcan/OpenCL which doesn’t bring much in this situation.

Yes it is an industry standard, there is even a technical term for it.

It is called De facto standard, which you can check in your favourite dictionary.

CUDA isn't the industry standard? What is then?
