Explanation

The CPU (Central Processing Unit) is a general-purpose processor with few, powerful cores optimized for low-latency, sequential processing and complex logic tasks. In contrast, the GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) is a specialized processor with thousands of smaller, simpler cores designed for high-throughput, parallel processing of massive datasets.
