Which factors drove the recent rapid progress of AI?
Why B is the answer
GPUs, large datasets and better algorithms
Compute, data and algorithms improved together.
In detail
- Compute, data and algorithms improved together.
- No single factor explains it.
Use case
An illustrative scenario, not a real incident.
Modern AI grew because GPUs, large datasets and better algorithms arrived together.

Why the other options are wrong
- A. A move from software to mechanical computing
- That is not what happened.
- C. Slower networks and smaller training datasets
- That is the opposite.
- D. Fewer developers and less open research
- That is the opposite.
