The defining paradigm shift of 2007 was the realization that beautiful, complex, handcrafted mathematical rules were fundamentally inferior to raw computing scale. By pairing the immense parallel processing power of NVIDIA’s CUDA-enabled GPUs with the massive visual datasets curated by projects like ImageNet, artificial intelligence finally found its true fuel: unyielding processing muscle coupled with infinite digital data.
