Ok, allow me to me rephrase GP: will this make it possible (in the long run) to train tensor flow models on AMD acceleration cards in a supported, easy-to-use and performant way, c…

Sure - but I am guessing a few errors here and there would have much less impact than a single programming mistake. Not that I think this is the right way, but I do understand wher…
