👉 Nearly computing refers to the use of extremely powerful supercomputers or distributed systems that can perform calculations at a pace and scale far beyond what traditional computers can achieve. These systems, often leveraging advanced architectures like GPUs or specialized hardware, tackle complex problems in fields such as climate modeling, drug discovery, and artificial intelligence by processing vast amounts of data simultaneously. The term "nearly" emphasizes that while these systems can handle tasks that would be impractical or impossible for conventional machines, they don't fully replicate human-level intelligence or solve every conceivable problem; they excel at specific, high-stakes computations that require immense computational power.
