About this episode
Raja Koduri joined Bryan and Adam to answer a question sent in from a listener: what's are the differences between a CPU, GPU, FPGA, and ASIC? And after a walk through history of hardware, software, their intersection and relevant companies, we ... almost answered it!
In addition to Bryan Cantrill and Adam Leventhal, our special guest was Raja Koduri.
Some of the topics we hit on, in the order that we hit them:
- 3dfx Oral History Panel with Ross Smith, Scott Sellers, Gary Tarolli, and Gordon Campbell
- 3dfx
- OpenGL
- Glide
- Direct3D
- CUDA
- Dennard scaling
- VLIW
- GPGPU
- AMD APU
- Energy Efficiency and AI Hardware
- PRs needed!
If we got something wrong or missed something, please file a PR! Our next show will likely be on Monday at 5p Pacific Time on our Discord server; stay tuned to our Mastodon feeds for details, or subscribe to this calendar. We'd love to have you join us, as we always love to hear from new speakers!
