I don't know very much about traditional vector processors, but I could see how it could be said that CUDA uses GPU's as vector processors. Whenever you create a CUDA kernel, you need to create a one, two, or three dimensional thread block of some specified size to operate on your data. Each core then isn't a vector processor, but I guess you could say that you're treating each block as one.
