From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I use PyTorch daily at work and I'm happy to have gone AMD. Initial support for last gen was lacking but it's there now. It mostly works , the performance is great but it crashes on some unusual tasks.
Yes, it is worth differentiating between writing AI yourself and trying to get some giant open source project to work where you have no idea why it fails.
Your comment is appreciated, because everyone has to decide for themselves if "it crashes on some unusual tasks." is worth the performance or VRAM increase you can get with AMD.
Quick update to let you know that it works on all my tasks with ROCm 5.7
