AMD May Get Across the CUDA Moat
Yep, did exactly that. IMO he threw a fit, even though AMD was working with him squashing bugs. https://github.com/RadeonOpenCompute/ROCm/issues/2198#issuec...

ROCm Is AMD's #1 Priority, Executive Says
I don't know if they'll ultimately succeed or not, but they at least seem to be putting genuine effort into this. ROCm releases are coming out at a relatively nice clip[1], including a new release just a week or two ago[2].
Ok, I wonder what's wrong. maybe it's this? https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4959621/error-1001-in-cl...
Nope. Anything about this on the arch wiki? Nope
This bug report[2] from 2021? Maybe I need to update my groups.

Simplifying GPU Application Development with HMM
HMM is, I believe, a Linux feature.
AMD added HMM support in ROCm 5.0 according to this: https://github.com/RadeonOpenCompute/ROCm/blob/develop/CHANG...

AMD Ryzen APU turned into a 16GB VRAM GPU and it can run Stable Diffusion
Woot AMD now supports APU? I sold my notebook as i hit a wall when trying rocm [1] Is there a list oft Wirkung apu's ?

Nvidia's CUDA Monopoly
I think geohot is working on that with tinygrad. Activity on the ROCm repo seems to have increased a lot recently:

Last I heard he's abandoned working with AMD products.

Nvidia H100 GPUs: Supply and Demand
[1] links to https://github.com/RadeonOpenCompute/ROCm/issues/2198 which has all the context (driver bugs, vowing to stop using AMD, Lisa Su's response that they're committed to fixing this stuff, a comment that it's fixed)
They're talking about the meltdown he had on stream [1] (in front of the mentioned pirate flag), that ended with him saying he'd stop using AMD hardware [2]. He recanted this two weeks after talking with AMD [3].
Maybe he'll succeed, but this definitely doesn't scream stability to me. I'd be wary of investing money into his ventures (but then I'm not a VC, so what do I know).

Why Nvidia Keeps Winning: The Rise of an AI Giant

On a personal level that youtube doesn't make him come off looking that good... like people are trying to get patches to him and generally soothe him/damage control and he's just being a bit of a manchild. And it sounds like that's the general course of events around a lot of his "efforts".
On the other hand he's not wrong either, having this private build inside AMD and not even validating official, supported configurations for the officially supported non-private builds they show to the world isn't a good look, and that's just the very start of the problems around ROCm. AMD's OpenCL runtime was never stable or good either and every experience I've heard with it was "we spent so much time fighting AMD-specific runtime bugs and specs jank that what we ended up with was essentially vendor-proprietary anyway".
On the other other hand, it sounds like AMD know this is a mess and has some big stability/maturity improvements in the pipeline. It seems clear from some of the smoke coming out of the building that they're cooking on more general ROCm support for RDNA cards, and generally working to patch the maturity and stability issues he's talking about. I hate the "wait for drivers/new software release bro it's gonna fix everything" that surrounds AMD products but in this case I'm at least hopeful they seem to understand the problem, even if it's completely absurdly late.
Some of what he was viewing as "the process happening in secret" was likely people doing rush patches on the latest build to accommodate him, and he comes off as berating them over it. Again, like, that stream just comes off as "mercurial manchild" not coding genius. And everyone knew the driver situation is bad, that's why there's notionally alpha for him to realize here in the first place. He's bumping into moneymakers, and getting mad about it.

best way to serve llama V2 (llama.cpp VS triton VS HF text generation inference)
I am wondering what is the best / most cost-efficient way to serve llama V2. - llama.cpp (is it production ready or just for playing around?) ? - Triton inference server ? - HF text generation inference ?

Machine Learning Inference Server in Rust?
I am looking for something like [Triton Inference Server](https://github.com/triton-inference-server/server) or [TFX Serving](https://www.tensorflow.org/tfx/guide/serving), but in Rust. I came across [Orkon](https://github.com/vertexclique/orkhon) which seems to be dormant and a bunch of examples off of the [Awesome-Rust-MachineLearning](https://github.com/vaaaaanquish/Awesome-Rust-MachineLearning)

Multi-model serving options
You've already mentioned Seldon Core which is well worth looking at but if you're just after the raw multi-model serving aspect rather than a fully-fledged deployment framework you should maybe take a look at the individual inference servers: Triton Inference Server and MLServer both support multi-model serving for a wide variety of frameworks (and custom python models). MLServer might be a better option as it has an MLFlow runtime but only you will be able to decide that. There also might be other inference servers that do MMS that I'm not aware of.

Why TensorFlow for Python is dying a slow death
"TensorFlow has the better deployment infrastructure"
Tensorflow Serving is nice in that it's so tightly integrated with Tensorflow. As usual that goes both ways. It's so tightly coupled to Tensorflow if the mlops side of the solution is using Tensorflow Serving you're going to get "trapped" in the Tensorflow ecosystem (essentially).
For pytorch models (and just about anything else) I've been really enjoying Nvidia Triton Server[0]. Of course it further entrenches Nvidia and CUDA in the space (although you can execute models CPU only) but for a deployment today and the foreseeable future you're almost certainly going to be using a CUDA stack anyway.
Triton Server is very impressive and I'm always surprised to see how relatively niche it is.

Show HN: Software for Remote GPU-over-IP
Inference servers essentially turn a model running on CPU and/or GPU hardware into a microservice.
Many of them support the kserve API standard[0] that supports everything from model loading/unloading to (of course) inference requests across models, versions, frameworks, etc.
So in the case of Triton[1] you can have any number of different TensorFlow/torch/tensorrt/onnx/etc models, versions, and variants. You can have one or more Triton instances running on hardware with access to local GPUs (for this example). Then you can put standard REST and or grpc load balancers (or whatever you want) in front of them, hit them via another API, whatever.
Now all your applications need to do to perform inference is do an HTTP POST (or use a client[2]) for model input, Triton runs it on a GPU (or CPU if you want), and you get back whatever the model output is.
Not a sales pitch for Triton but it (like some others) can also do things like dynamic batching with QoS parameters, automated model profiling and performance optimization[3], really granular control over resources, response caching, python middleware for application/biz logic, accelerated media processing with Nvidia DALI, all kinds of stuff.
