reasoning
**Evaluating PyTorch and cuBLAS TF32** I'm considering the PyTorch reference using cuBLAS TF32 and how it might not match bitwise due to implementation differences. The tolerance may be acceptable, but my guess is that the accumulation order could introduce errors compared to cuBLAS TF32, possibly around 1e-2. I wonder if a tolerance of 1e-4 is too tight? Actually, I think that the sum order differences could be within 1e-4, as tensor core accumulates FP32 in a deterministic way but involves different tiling.
