NVIDIA is absolutely dominating the AI conversation right and for good measure - their GPUs perform out-of-the-box and are a top choice for professionals and businesses that want to dabble […]

…Both Intel and AMD optimized their software stacks to get massive speedups in generative AI which has seen AMD’s RTX 7900 XTX get higher performance per dollar than an NVIDIA RTX 4080 in generative AI (specifically Stable Diffusion with A111/Xformers). Considering Stable Diffusion accounts for the vast majority of non-SaaS, localized generative AI right now - this is a major milestone and finally offers some competition to NVIDIA.

    There’s a plugin for Blender I saw a while ago that uses Stable Diffusion to create dynamic textures for objects, the example that was shown was a low-poly AC unit. The GPU generate option was greyed out for AMD GPUs because the Nvidia option uses CUDA, I wonder if this update would change that? Because that’s something I really wanna be able to use for prototyping
