is there a chance that cuda will become open source at some point?
from what I know, there is a similar open source project for the equivalent of cuda in the ati world.

Open-source CUDA couterpart? Do you mean AMD Stream? I think they’re still taking closed-source approach to Stream SDK, although their GPU spec itself is open. As for CUDA, the nvcc is ‘somewhat’ open-sourced due to the fact that it’s based on open64.
Yep. There is already a modified version of the compiler someone posted to the forums with a few added intrinsics.
