Anush and his team’s efforts made me a believer that ROCm could compete. Trust me, I was a skeptic.
Anush would and still does personally respond on X publicly to every credible criticism, not with excuses or defensiveness, but with action. I really admire that and wish more tech execs would do that.
I remember when ROCm, first launched in 2016, had a quarterly release schedule for major (kinda) feature releases. Now it’s every 6 weeks.
Is “speed the moat”?
We will see.
