Artificial Intelligence (AI) relates to computer hardware in multiple ways, as follows: AI platforms are being used to optimize the design and manufacturing of new compute hardware systems. Special computer hardware processor units, referred to as AI accelerators or Neural Processing Units (NPU) are being developed to enhance the performance of AI applications and machine ... Read more
Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) have been traditionally used in computing systems for image processing (graphics cards). Their usage has largely been expanded to AI and ML tasks and are largely used for optimizing performance of neural networks.
Parallelization is the technique of dividing up processing tasks among multiple processors to scale up the performance of a software environment. Parallel CPU, NPU and GPU architectures achieve much higher performance than legacy serial execution logic circuits.
