C++ is utilized across many software libraries for speed, and is widely used in operating systems, financial applications, and scientific simulations. Production ready generative artificial intelligence applications continue to implement C++ to ensure application performance, reliability, and flexibility. Open source LLaMA.cpp, GPT4All, Libtorch, and TensorFlow C++ permit a broad range of fast machine learning implementations. TensorRT (nVIDIA) and OpenVINO (Intel) heavily rely on C++ software designed for hardware specific to the manufacturer.
C++ was developed by Bjarne Stroustrup, and was released in 1985
C++ object-oriented programming (OOP): encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism for modularity
C++ is widely used in Operating systems, Financial applications, and Scientific simulations
C++ code is compiled into machine code, making it a fast and efficient language
C++ is known for its: performance, reliability, flexibility, and complexity
Generative AI Inference with C++ allows for fast and controllable answers to user questions
Python is more for training/fine-tuning models, which can be converted to C++ for speed
Many IDEs across Operating Systems utilize C++: XCode, CLion, VS Code, and more
