GPUs obviously do tons of work. You see it every time you play a graphics intensive game. You know how crypto-miners are using them. You’ve heard AI companies using them for model building. You’ve got this hardware in your machine! Can you use it? Should you use it? Where even to start?
GPUs can help if your problems, data, systems, languages, and architecture align. GPU-based solutions won’t help everyone … but when they do help, oh boy do they really help.
