Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) have become the default hardware for many AI workloads, especially when training large models. That thinking is everywhere. While it makes sense in some contexts, it’s also created a blind spot that’s holding us back.
GPUs have earned their reputation. They’re incredible at crunching massive numbers in parallel, which makes them perfect for training large language models or running high-speed AI inference. That’s why companies like OpenAI, Google, and Meta spend a lot of money building GPU clusters.
