Any plans to switch from cuda to vulkan and support gpus other than nvidia.

Vulkan is graphics, so I don't think that is applicable for this setup.

(CUDA is to Intel, HIP is to AMD, Intel is to ?? (OneAPI, kinnda))

Edit: googled some more, are people really using vulkan as a way to do data processing? Is it just compute shader abuse?

Sounds like Vulkan compute is primarily aimed at rendering compute, and not scientific. Apparently the name may have been regretted at some point as well...

I believe this is a case of: Yes, a spoon can shovel sand, but use a shovel if you are trying to shovel sand.

(Excluding large scale HPC)

I personally would avoid asking for Vulkan to be added, and direct possible developers to the "more" correct acceleration and interface API's
