Could you build this?
No Compiling and running CUDA code on Apple Silicon GPUs requires deep compiler engineering, transpiling PTX or CUDA source to Metal Shading Language (MSL) or AIR bytecode, and emulating warp/wavefront semantics.
What it would actually take: Requires building an LLVM-based compiler backend to parse CUDA/NVVM IR/PTX and emit Apple Metal intermediate representation or MSL, along with a CUDA runtime emulation layer mapping streams and shared memory to Metal compute command encoders. Deep expertise in compiler design, GPU microarchitecture, Apple Silicon SIMD execution models, and CUDA execution semantics is essential.
