Google and Amazon have released PyTorch versions for their chips, making it easier to run AI apps on their hardware without rewriting. This move aims to loosen Nvidia's grip on the AI industry. Developers can now move existing PyTorch apps to Google's TPUs and Amazon's Trainium chips with a simple configuration change. This shift could significantly impact the economics of AI development, especially for teams looking to diversify their hardware choices. PyTorch, used by 85% of AI apps, is now decoupled from Nvidia's chips, making it more open to any hardware by default.

Key Points
Google's TorchTPU allows AI apps to run on TPUs with a simple config change, no rewrites needed.
