What are these languages? I'm curious because C++ is the standard in my community so it's all I ever hear about (and Rust from the adventurous few).

Java, Rust, Go, C#, Swift are the biggest ones (in no particular order) on the CPU side.

On the GPU side I'm not as up to date, but there's a lot of Python-ish stacks like JAX, PyTorch, Mojo, etc.

GPUs don’t run python.

Yes, GPUs run machine code like CPUs. The toolchain compiles code to machine code that gets executed on GPUs. In the stacks referenced above it's not exactly Python, which is why I used the term Python-ish instead of Python.
