A solo developer has successfully enabled CUDA workloads to run on AMD hardware in Windows by integrating the ZLUDA project with AMD's HIP libraries. This breakthrough allows CUDA-exclusive applications to operate on AMD GPUs, such as the Radeon RX 9060 XT, without the need for virtualization or dual-booting.

Traditionally, CUDA has been exclusive to NVIDIA GPUs, creating a barrier for AMD hardware in certain computational workloads. This development bridges that gap, potentially broadening the use of AMD GPUs for developers and researchers who rely on CUDA-based software.

This advancement could lead to increased flexibility for users who prefer AMD hardware but require CUDA support, potentially influencing GPU purchasing decisions and software development strategies.
