Nvidia CUDA in 100 Seconds

What is CUDA? And how does parallel computing on the GPU enable developers to unlock the full potential of AI? Learn the basics of Nvidia CUDA programming in this quick tutorial.

Sponsor Disclaimer: I was not paid to make this video, but Nvidia did hook me up with an RTX4090

  • Has anyone else questioned how these are 100 seconds? I’m not complaining but the premise is a lie!!! Keep the lies coming Fireship!

  • CUDA is some cracking name 😂😂. Will the next generation of CUDA become CUDAI?

  • Gemini 1.5 Pro: This video is about Nvidia CUDA, a parallel computing platform that allows programmers to use the GPU for more than just playing video games.

    The video starts by explaining what GPUs are typically used for. GPUs are used for computing graphics. When you play a game in 1080p at 60 FPS, there are over 2 million pixels on the screen that may need to be recalculated after every frame. This requires a lot of matrix multiplication and vector transformations, which GPUs are very good at. Unlike a CPU that has a few cores, a modern GPU like the RTX 4090 has over 16,000 cores. This makes GPUs perfect for tasks that can be parallelized.

    Cuda allows developers to tap into the power of the GPU. Data scientists all around the world are using Cuda to train machine learning models. To use Cuda, you first need to write a function called a Cuda kernel that runs on the GPU. Then you copy some data from your main RAM to the GPU's memory. The CPU will then tell the GPU to execute that function or kernel in parallel. The code is executed in a block which itself organizes threads into a multi-dimensional grid. Then the final result from the GPU is copied back to the main memory.

    The video then goes through an example of building a Cuda application. The first step is to install the Cuda toolkit which includes device drivers, a runtime compiler, and developer tools. The code is written in C++. The video shows an example of a function that adds two vectors together. Because billions of operations might be happening in parallel, the code needs to calculate the global index of the thread in the block that it's working on. The video also talks about using managed memory which can be accessed from both the CPU and the GPU.

    The video then shows a main function for the CPU that runs the Cuda kernel. The code uses a for loop to initialize arrays with data and then passes this data to the function to run it on the GPU. The video also talks about configuring the Cuda kernel launch to control how many blocks and threads are used to run the code in parallel. This is important for optimizing multi-dimensional data structures like tensors used in deep learning. Finally, the code uses Cuda device synchronize to wait for the GPU to finish executing the code and then copies the data back to the host machine.

  • The more you buy, the more you save.
    Eventually you save more than you spend in time, you return to the past.

  • #KARRAT business partner with #NVIDIA massive pump around the corner 💥💥💥💥 soon 50$ for one coin 🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀 #KARRAT project number one definitely soon massive blast 🌋🌋🌋🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤

  • I can't believe humans come from hunting dinosaurs and live in caves and now some people have to deal with massive complicated math to bring technology to us

  • "cu" in brazilian portuguese is that hole… inside the ass kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

  • Idk if this is a hot take or not. I know nvidia GPUs are super expensive… but if you look into just how much effort it takes to design and build one, both from a software and hardware side, it doesnt seem that wild to me really.
