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.
