The document discusses hacking the MIOpen machine learning library to run on Nvidia GPUs instead of just AMD GPUs. The author removed AMD GPU checks from the build script and fixed a buffer overflow issue to get most tests to pass on an Nvidia GTX 970. With these changes, MIOpen can now run on Nvidia and Intel GPUs/CPUs, breaking the monopoly of proprietary machine learning libraries only working on certain hardware. Future work includes Windows/Mac support and growing a community around the libre version.
