Yes!

Pytorch, Jax, tensorflow are all examples to me of very capable products, that compete very well in ML space.

But more broadly work like XLA and IREE are very interesting toolkits for mapping a huge variety of computation onto many types of hardware. While Pytorch et al are fine example applications, are things you can do, XLA is the Big Tent idea, the toolkit to erode not just specific CUDA use cases, but to allow hardware in general to be more broadly useful.
