not sure what "It's not hard to write Python code that "optimally exploits" the GPU", exactly means but Python is so far from exploiting the GPU resources even with C/C++ bindings that it's not even funny. I am sure that HPC folks would have migrated way from FORTRAN and C/C++ long time ago if it was so easy.

I wasn't trying to claim that Python is great at fully exploiting GPU resources on generic GPU tasks. But in ML applications it often does.
