🔩 Compute API

CUDA 12

CUDA 12 is NVIDIA's GPU compute platform and parallel programming model. It provides a C/C++ extension enabling developers to write massively parallel kernels that execute across thousands of CUDA cores. CUDA 12 adds improved graph API, modular compilation, and FlashAttention-2 optimizations critical for LLM inference. It is the foundational runtime for AI/ML frameworks including PyTorch and TensorFlow, GPU-accelerated renderers like Octane, Redshift, and Arnold GPU, and scientific computing workloads.
