  I wonder if it will have a positive impact on the development of this library that the new Mac Pro will feature a dedicated AMD Vega GPU.

  EDIT: there is more discussion going on at /r/MachineLearning than here: https://www.reddit.com/r/MachineLearning/comments/6kv3rs/mop...

  Are there any benchmarks comparing performance with CuDNN?

  Weird website, took me a while to classify its purpose. So, is this like an AMD version of NVIDIA's CuDNN? Can we run TensorFlow on AMD GPUs?
