Program Deep Learning on the GPU with Triton

 Triton is a new, Python-like, language from OpenAI intended to ease programming for the GPU by providing an alternative to CUDA.

NVIDIA's CUDA toolkit provides a development environment for speeding up computing applications by harnessing the power of GPUs, but it requires the code to be written code in C++. As C++ by default is not user-friendly and difficult to master,these properties subsequently rub off on the toolkit itself.

Wouldn't it be easier to use a language that is user-friendly to write your GPU-accelerated deep learning applications in? Wish granted by Open AI which has announced:
