Graphics processing units (GPUs) are specialized processing cores that you can use to speed computational processes. These cores were initially designed to process images and visual data. However, GPUs are now being adopted to enhance other computational processes, such as deep learning. This is because GPUs can be effectively used in parallel for massive distributed computational processes.

GPUs can perform multiple, simultaneous computations. This enables the distribution of training processes and can significantly speed machine learning operations. With GPUs, you can accumulate many cores that use fewer resources without sacrificing efficiency or power.

When designing your deep learning architecture, your decision to include GPUs relies on several factors:

• Memory bandwidth—including GPUs can provide the bandwidth needed to accommodate large datasets. This is because GPUs include dedicated video RAM (VRAM), enabling you to retain CPU memory for other tasks.
• Dataset size—GPUs in parallel can scale more easily than CPUs, enabling you to process massive datasets faster. The larger your datasets are, the greater benefit you can gain from GPUs.
• Optimization—a downside of GPUs is that optimization of long-running individual tasks is sometimes more difficult than with CPUs.
