Has anyone tried writing code for Go what would work in parallel?
SlugGo does parallel lookahead of various possible moves.
Would something like NVIDIA CUDA be useful?
Hard to tell. There seems to be an underlying assumption that the data is all the same. If so, then putting different lookahead paths into their own stream may not be possible because the different moves mean different data for each stream. It is clear from the web site that they want each stream operating on the same exact data (like the image on the screen). It is not clear to me how much data each stream can have independently of the other streams, and that will determine if each stream can be an independent move evaluator or not.
