It's modded funny because OpenCL is all but dead for new projects. It got weighed down by industry infighting to the point that the big feature of OpenCL 3.0 in 2020 was undoing everything added to the spec after 2011.
So the idea of using OpenCL as a CUDA replacement, rather than something like ROCm or OneAPI, is funny. It's like rewriting C++ programs to use Pascal.
Since when did product longevity matter?

I'm amused at how petty that billionaire's make-money-fa$t schemes are. Selling steaks? Tennis shoes? Bibles?

All computation is mechanical at its core

I'm going to venture way out on a skinny limb and suggest that all mechanical processes are subject to quantum effects.
You think migration is bad now, wait until "undesirable" people start mass migrating from unlivable areas.
It may go the opposite direction. If current water & agricultral "haves" become "have-nots" and vice versa due to changes in weather there will be endless wars as the "haves" try to maintain their position.
Sorry. Trump said you need to use coal
For cars?
Humans -- most of us -- don't think goblins are real, let alone important. But what if the AI has picked up on sparse evidence, so subtle that humans have never noticed it, that proves that goblins are real and need to be discussed more. It may be trying to save us from a pending gobocalypse.
ISTM that there ought to be consequences for this kind of thing slipping by unchecked. I don't know who or what in this case, but I would suggest the immediate disbarment in the somewhat common case of a lawyer who submits a legal brief with fake citations. Some professionals need to be held accountable for doing professional work.
