  • You are the one who brought up the question of even needing the CPU at all. Also, It wasn’t meant to be an attack. Just an explanation as to why you’d still need a CPU.

    why would you run x86

    All I meant was a large portion of software and compatibility tools still use it, and our modern desktop CPU architectures are still inspired from it. Things like CUDA are vastly different was my point

    But if what you meant by your original comment was to not do away with the CPU, then yes! By all means, plenty of software is now migrating to taking advantage of the GPU as much as possible. I was only addressing you asking “at some point do we even need the CPU?” - the answer is yes :)
