You may be confusing front end APIs and the compiler backends. Julia is flexible enough that you can essentially define domain specific languages within Julia for certain applications. In this case, we are using Julia as an abstract front end and then deferring the concrete interface to vendor specific GPU compilation drivers. Part of what permits this is that Julia is a LLVM front end and many of the vendor drivers include LLVM-based backends. With some transformation of the Julia abstract syntax tree and the LLVM IR we can connect the two. That said we are mostly dependent on vendors providing the backend compiler technology. When they do, we can bridge Julia to use that interface. We can wrap Vulkan and technologies like oneAPI. https://github.com/JuliaGPU/Vulkan.jl https://github.com/JuliaGPU/oneAPI.jl As for syntax, Julia syntax scal

es from a scripting language to a fully typed language. You can write valid and performant code without specifying any types, but you can also specialize methods for specific types. The type notation uses `::`. The types also have parameters in the curly brackets. The other aspect that makes this specific example complicated is the use of Lisp-like macros which starts with `@`. These allow for code transformation as I described earlier. The last aspect is that the author is making extensive use of Unicode. This is purely optional as you can write Julia with just ASCII. Some authors like to use `ε` instead of `in`.

Julia has excellent CUDA support[1], I have no idea why nvidia doesn't promote it more. It's fast, flexible and very featureful. There was a recent thread about it here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27496679 The AMD [2] and Intel [3] support is younger, but developing quickly. There's also [4] for a unified API that works across different GPU vendors to avoid lockin [1] https://cuda.juliagpu.org/dev/ [2] https://github.com/JuliaGPU/AMDGPU.jl [3] https://github.com/JuliaGPU/oneAPI.jl [4] https://github.com/JuliaGPU/KernelAbstractions.jl
In Is Julia Really Fast?

OpenCL and various other solutions basically require that one writes kernels in C/C++. This is an unfortunate limitation, and can make it hard for less experienced users (researchers especially) to write correct and performant GPU code, since neither language lends itself to writing many mathematical and scientific models in a clean, maintainable manner (in my opinion). What oneAPI (the runtime), and also AMD's ROCm (specifically the ROCR runtime), do that is new is that they enable packages like oneAPI.jl [1] and AMDGPU.jl [2] to exist (both Julia packages), without having to go through OpenCL or C++ transpilation (which we've tried out before, and it's quite painful). This is a great thing, because now users of an entirely different language can still utilize their GPUs effectively and with near-optimal performance (optimal w.r.t what t
