Lots of garbage collected languages seamlessly target GPUs. This is typically done at the library level, either within the language ecosystem (eg in Python using Cupy instead of Numpy: https://towardsdatascience.com/heres-how-to-use-cupy-to-make-numpy-700x-faster-4b920dda1f56 https://towardsdatascience.com/heres-how-to-use-cupy-to-make...) or below it (using cuBLAS as your BLAS implementation: https://developer.nvidia.com/cublas https://developer.nvidia.com/cublas)
Java can do this too - something like ArrayFire is reasonably popular: https://developer.nvidia.com/arrayfire https://developer.nvidia.com/arrayfire
