1 answer is correct. Easy

Show answer

Answer

  • D GPU

Explanation

ML training consists of a huge number of simple calculations that can run at the same time. GPUs with their thousands of cores are built for exactly that. A CPU has few cores, but faster and more precise ones for demanding individual tasks. That strength helps little in ML, so the GPU is usually much faster.
