格隆汇11月10日｜据美国科技媒体Wccftech，微软为打破英伟达CUDA在AI领域的软件生态霸权，开发 出一套专用工具包，可将基于英伟达CUDA编写的AI模型程序码，自动转换为跟AMD ROCm平台的版 本兼容。微软高层透露，这款未命名的工具包能让原本锁定在英伟达硬件生态的AI应用程序，未来在 AMD AI GPU如MI300X系列上无缝运作。报道指出，微软开发工具包的背后核心原因是AI推理需求激 增。英伟达GPU性能强但价格昂贵，导致推理成本居高不下。通过实现CUDA到ROCm的转换，微软希 望为客户提供更灵活、经济的算力选择。 ...

Core Viewpoint - Microsoft is taking steps to break NVIDIA's dominance in the AI software ecosystem by developing a specialized toolkit that enables code compatibility across different GPU platforms [1][3]. Group 1: NVIDIA's Dominance - NVIDIA has established a strong software ecosystem barrier in the AI field through its CUDA platform, which many AI model codes are based on [3]. - This reliance on CUDA has limited the development of other GPU platforms, particularly affecting AMD's ROCm platform due to compatibility issues [3]. Group 2: Microsoft's Toolkit - Microsoft has developed a specialized toolkit (name not disclosed) that can automatically convert AI model codes written for NVIDIA's CUDA to versions compatible with AMD's ROCm platform [3]. - This toolkit is expected to significantly expand the application range of AI models and hardware choices, allowing models that previously ran only on NVIDIA GPUs to operate on AMD hardware [3].
