We took this embarrassingly parallel problem called computer graphics and we applied it to this new way of doing computing, NVIDIA's accelerated computing.
We put it in all of our graphics cards.
Kids were buying it to play games.
You probably don't know this, but we're the largest gaming platform in the world today.
I used to be a Quake junkie.
So SLI, I'll tell you the story in just a second and how it led to Elon.
I'm still answering the question.
And so anyways, these two kids trained this model using the technique I described earlier on our GPUs because our GPUs could process things in parallel.
It's essentially a supercomputer in a PC.
The reason why you used it for Quake is because it is the first consumer supercomputer.
And so anyways, they made that breakthrough.
We were working on computer vision at the time.
