GPU
A graphics processing unit is a specialized electronic circuit designed to handle graphics processing and video rendering tasks more efficiently than a central processing unit. CPUs are excellent general-purpose processors, while GPUs are optimized for parallel processing. This makes them ideal for applications that involve a large number of calculations performed simultaneously. However, GPUs have evolved beyond their original purpose and are now widely used in various applications. GPUs are helpful in processing tasks like scientific simulations, machine learning, and cryptocurrency mining. The parallel processing capability makes GPUs highly efficient for tasks like training deep learning models. They have become an integral part of many computing systems, especially those requiring high computational power.
