I've been working a lot with GPUs recently, and so far it's been a mixture of really awesome, and really hateful. Dealing with memory is a huge pain, and the language limitations are pretty bad. So many workloads these days are so parallelizable it seems like a shame that the difficulty of working with GPUs turns people away from them. I strongly look forward to the day when this stuff is "fully mainstream" and it receives more attention from the compiler folks. Having a unified memory pipeline would be an excellent first step. I can't wait to play with a Tegra X1 SOC! That's a whole lot of power in a an embedded device. Would be excellent for real time embedded video processing or computer graphics.
