Suboptimal CPU utilization and GPU recognition issues

5/10 Medium

Query: “What are the most common pain points with TensorFlow for developers in 2025?”4/4/2026

If I have a high powered CPU, I cannot use it... my GPU is not recognized. So I can use the CPU, but it's not really optimized for this purpose.
