Short Description
A GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) is a highly parallel processor originally designed to accelerate image rendering and visual workloads. Unlike CPUs, which handle general-purpose computing tasks sequentially, GPUs can execute thousands of operations simultaneously β making them ideal for workloads involving matrix math, vector calculations, and massive data throughput. While GPUs were first used in gaming and 3D rendering, they now play a central role in AI/HPC, i.e. in model training and inference, where their parallel architecture is essential. In recent years, the term βGPUβ has become synonymous with the compute backbone of modern AI infrastructure.
