    Optical computing won’t change anything. The compiler takes care of it.

    Even quantum computing basically works just like a GPU. You give it an algorithm and data to retrieve the result a bit later. Someone will make a quantum equivalent of CUDA before commercialization.

      It doesn’t really matter, it’s not enough for me to just black box it and say the compiler will handle it, I want to have a rough idea of how every part of the stack works, otherwise I’m right back to high school.
