Will graphics cards eventually get renamed?

Are the optimizations for inference basically identical to graphics?

I imagine the workloads are different, and that inference has been the main market for years now...



The new things are already getting renamed, but the dust hasn't settled yet.

why bother renaming? just re-acronym to "greatly parallel unit"
