python -c "import tensorflow as tf; tf.enable_eager_execution(); print(tf.reduce_sum(tf.random_normal([1000, 1000])))"
And this doesn't work. It turns out that tensorflow 1.13.1 doesn't work with CUDA 10.1! But there is a work around, which is to install cuda10 in conda only (see https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/issues/26182). We are also going to leave the installation of CUDA 10.1 because tensorflow will catch up at some point. Still as researcher (and in the venv):
conda install cudatoolkit
conda install cudnn
AND IT WORKS!
Note: to deactivate the virtual environment: deactivate
