Description

JuliaLang/julia#47994 fixed most cases where semi-concrete interpretation ended up with a wider result than constant propagation. It may be okay to turn on semi-concrete interpretation in GPUCompiler after 1.10.0-DEV.203. However, there are still a few known remaining cases, so you may want to keep the overload unless you are willing to optimize compilation performance at the risk of inference regression.
