Afaik, gpu cores a very stripped down cpu cores that do basic math, but what sort of math can cpus do that gpus can’t

I’m talking, cpu core vs Tensor/Cuda cores.

    I imagine it like a construction site for a new house. Do you want 10 master craftsman who can do everything or 300 guys off the street who kinda know what they’re doing and are really on there for grunt labor. For the tasks that require lots of manual labor you want the 300 guys, but for those tasks that aren’t easy or aren’t very parallel, you want fewer but more capable cores.
