TBH, I'm amazed at how efficient CUDA is compared to CPU on even a fairly lowly GPU. RTX 3050ti vs AMD Ryzen 5 6600H and I see close to 30x in pytorch.

It makes me wonder if CPUs will start adding a lot of matrix math specific extensions in the near future.

That was Larrabee whole idea, and AVX is what is left of it.
