Accelerated Game of Life with CUDA / Triton

[pjmlp]

CUDA supports more than just C or C++, is exactly part of its appeal.

The WebGPU tutorial is also Game of life.

It would be interesting to see a perf comparision. WebGPU does not have a 64 bit type but it could be emulated with a Vec2u load/store.

This does not do hashlife, so it is not SOTA.

Coincidentally I am also writing a cellular automata simulation. I've blindly given your article to my software architect subagent, who has identified several architectural improvements that it can make and has converted these into tasks to farm out to other subagents. Thanks!

Just a glimpse from building software in 2025.

Did you confirm the improvements are actually real?
