writing custom kernels for EuroHPC (+ low level adaptation to run dockerized env) is probably the highest impact work for EU AI, but as usual no funding line for this.

Sentiment
Users criticize the EU's lack of funding for custom kernels on EuroHPC because it leads to multiple teams redundantly redoing the same limited optimizations instead of coordinated work.

instead, let's just have each of the 10 euro/openeuro/europa/llm things redo the same limited optimizations independently.

@Dorialexander We do actually get work like this funded, but 1) academics usually don't wanna work on this and 2) it feels like a waste of time for old archs like MI250X. It's lonely in this space.

@Dorialexander Underfund the custom kernels, fund ten teams to redo the same limited work instead. Same pattern.
