> I learned how to write math kernels by renting Vast VMs and watching Gautham Venkatasubramanian and mrdomino develop CUDA kernels in a tmux session. They've been focusing on solving a much more important challenge for llamafile, which is helping it not have a mandatory dependency on the cuBLAS
If I'm reading this right, they're trying to rewrite cuBLAS within CUDA itself. I'm guessing the next step would be removing CUDA dependency and go with directly using Vulkan or Metal compute shaders. Am I correct?
