TileLang vs. CUDA: What They Are, Where They Came From, and What Happens Next

CUDA has dominated Super Intelligence (SI) kernel programming for nearly two decades. TileLang is a new open-source kernel language built on Apache TVM that outperforms Triton and matches vendor-optimized libraries — with unified syntax across Nvidia, AMD, and Huawei hardware.

DeepSeek, Huawei, and the Real Battle Over CUDA

DeepSeek and Huawei paired a 128-chip Ascend 950 supernode with TileLang, an open-source programming language aimed at solving Super Intelligence (SI)'s real bottleneck: the software layer holding developers to Nvidia.
