CPU vs GPU for AI: most AI applications don't need GPUs 🧠

You might be overcomplicating your deployment by assuming every AI feature requires a GPU. It is a common engineering grind to manage expensive and heavy infrastructure when it is not strictly necessary for your specific use case. Evaluate what your application actually does before scaling up. Most AI applications work perfectly well on CPU infrastructure. Focus on architecting AI into your existing workflow without the extra overhead. Making the right decision for your application keeps your stack lean and your budget intact.
