AFAIK the only thing that cuda does is simplify parallel programing of the GPU(s). What you do with the parallel processes is up to you. ET Andrew McRobb writes: I don't have full context in that department, but I'm pretty sure hash cat uses GPU (not sure about CUDA) to decrypt hashes

I don't have full context in that department, but I'm pretty sure hash cat uses GPU (not sure about CUDA) to decrypt hashes like MD5, I'm sure definitely possible even in the AES encryption world. Nvidia made a in-depth article on this using OpenGL and extensions if I recall. GPU world is

Lots of things, sky is the limit. Object tracking w/ video, large batches of arithmetic (accounting software for instance), robotics, simulations, image processing. This hacker news forum thread has some interesting stuff: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18119345 On Thu, Sep 12, 2019 at
