Graphics Processing Units (GPUs)

GPUs are highly parallel processors containing thousands of smaller, more efficient cores designed to handle multiple tasks simultaneously. Unlike CPUs, which are optimized for sequential serial processing, GPUs can perform thousands of identical computations in parallel, making them ideal for the matrix multiplications and vector operations common in AI and machine learning. Modern GPUs typically feature high memory bandwidth, specialized tensor cores for AI operations, and optimized floating-point computation capabilities.
