An End-User Has Made It Easier To Build ROCm & AMD GPU Machine Learning Software


An end-user and Phoronix reader has taken up creating his own AMD ROCm SDK build system to make it easier to setup a machine learning software stack from scratch on AMD Radeon GPUs under Linux

This is just a hobby project by independent open-source developer Mika Laitio when he took to making it easier to experiment with machine learning software on his Radeon graphics cards. "My original motivation has really been to check how to get some of the code offloaded from CPU to GPU on consumer level GPU's and because AMD's open source stack starting from the Linux kernel drivers to ROCm, their stack motivated me because it would give opportunities for really improving the system. Those wanting to try out the rocm_sdk_builder or to learn more can do so via the GitHub project site.About The AuthorMichael Larabel is the principal author of Phoronix.com and founded the site in 2004 with a focus on enriching the Linux hardware experience.
