CPUs are progressing with more cores. Today a program should utilize 100+ cores to fully saturate modern server CPU (or 32 cores for consumer CPU).

GPU computations are a thing for many years and their hardware drastically differs from conventional CPUs.

There are neural accelerators in the latest computers. I have no idea what they do, but may be they warrant new programming approaches as well.
