Try training a deep learning model on your GPU with some other programming language.

Python isn’t used for the problem space of speed… Try using PHP for data science visualisation. Need a library to solve a problem? Ruby probably doesn’t have it. Need to write a quick script to transform some data, better spend a more time than doing it manually as you accidentally allocate memory incorrectly in C++. Want to scrape a website for some text? Enjoy tonnes of boilerplate and 30 lines of Java vs the three lines of Python.
Python isn’t about speed, it’s not even about being the best at anything, it’s about being good enough at pretty much any task your average coder needs to pull off in as short a time as possible, all with a single language. Plus, it’s way to bounce to another language from Python should you need to (for instance it’s much easier to write a speed-critical component in Go vs the entire application stack in Go - Python has a much lower cognitive load and developers can easily extend or refactor thanks to Pythonic code).
Thinking speed is a ding on Python shows a gross lack of knowledge of Python and its purpose.

What are you even on about? I’ve been writing code likely long before you were even born. And by your post history of drugmemes and suggesting Python scripts to people, I’m concerned you don’t know what you’re on about either.

Thank you for visiting my profile! Oh and I was born before python was created lol. Have fun using chat gpt

Tell me you have no idea what programming languages are used for without telling me you have no idea what programming languages are used for.

Too many negative words for chatgpt, imo. “isn’t”, “not”, etc, chatgpt is usually positive and friendly to a fault.
Maybe you could provide a prompt that would output something substantially similar to what they wrote?
