They are excellent for embarassily parallel algorithms, but are quite different than the ones on the CPU due to the way GPUs work. You can’t just build and run an application.

NASA’s new AI model can predict when a solar storm may strike

Created in 2019, the specification had languished in relative obscurity for years because the cheap, plentiful non-Express microSD cards were generally fast enough for the things that people were using them for, and because most hardware didn't support microSD Express cards in the first place.

Tiny microbe challenges the definition of cellular life

As such, it challenges fundamental notions of what it means to be a living organism.
