minus-square520@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up1·9 months agoYou can’t use it with programs that aren’t specifically coded to use it. Outside of hash cracking, AI training and crypto mining, few programs are. If you mean from a developer perspective, you need to download the CUDA libraries and read through the documentation.
