Before that is was computer gaming to a large degree. Not yet sure if that isn't still the more reasonable and constructive use of computing power to be honest, although some results of machine learning begin to seem slightly impressive. But I still think that system design is much more important than raw computing power, since the latter is still quite cheaply available on the market.
