Use of GPU is fast expanding outside of the 3D video game realm and offering numerous benefits for enterprise as well as industrial applications. With Deep learning taking a center stage in the industrial 4.0 revolution, GPU and x86 CPU manufacturers are ensuring that solution developers are not restrained by the range of options when it comes to choosing the right silicon for their product. So let's review what GPU can do differently from a CPU and vice versa, also how they make the perfect couple in the world of robot surgeons, cryptocurrencies, smart factories and self-driving cars.
