I can't use AMD (midwest.social)

It's necessary for my very important hobby of generating anime nudes.

Yeah but is it actually equivalent?

If so I'm 100% in but it needs to actually be. a drop in replacement for "it just works" like cuda is.

Once I've actually got drivers all set cuda "just works". Is it equivalent in that way? Or am I going to get into a library compatibility issue in R or Python?

Not all software that uses CUDA has support for ROCM.

But as far as setup goes, I just installed the correct drivers and ROCM compatible software just worked.

So - it can be a an equivalent alternative, but that depends on the software you want to run.
