Yeah I would suggest taking a look at PyTorch on AMD before saying stuff like "scaled_dot_product_attention is an NVIDIA CUDA kernel exposed as a PyTorch function", because that is demonstrably false.

Also, FWIW, I would suggest getting a small Llama 3.1 model training fast before trying to do a big 405B model -- faster to iterate and almost everything you'll learn on the small models will scale to the 405B.
