I'm inclined to believe it but that difference is exactly how nvidia got so far ahead of them in this space. They've consistently gone out of their way to put their GPGPU hardware and software in the hands of the average student and professional and the results speak for themselves.
I wouldn't say so. Nvidia bet on machine learning a decade or so before AMD got the memo. That was a good bet on Nvidia's part. In 2015 you just had to have an Nvidia card if you wanted to do ML research. Sure, Nvidia did hand them out in some cases, but even if you bought an AMD card it just wouldn't work. It was Nvidia or go home. Even if AMD now did everything right (and they don't), there's a decade+ of momentum in Nvidia's favor.
