Well, Apple has done nothing to replace the common standard they abandoned. They failed to develop their proprietary alternatives into a competitive position and now can't even use their own TSMC dies (imported at great expense) for training: https://www.eteknix.com/apple-set-to-invest-1-billion-in-nvi...

However you want to paint the picture today, you can't say the industry didn't try to resist CUDA. The stakeholders shot each other in a 4-way Mexican standoff, and Nvidia whistled showtunes all the way to the bank. If OpenCL was treated with the same importance Vulkan was, we might see a very different market today.
