What is CUDA?

CUDA is NVIDIA's parallel computing platform that allows GPUs to be used for non-graphics workloads.

Why it matters for AI

Deep learning depends heavily on large matrix operations, and CUDA made high-throughput GPU execution practical at scale.

Practical impact

Training speed, inference throughput, and framework optimization often depend on CUDA ecosystem support, making it a key infrastructure decision factor.
