NVIDIA officially released the first public version of the CUDA (Compute Unified Device Architecture) software development kit. This software layer allowed programmers to bypass complex graphics APIs and write standard C/C++ code to execute general matrix multiplications directly on parallel GPU hardware, turning consumer video cards into computational supercomputers for deep neural networks.
