The origins of torch go back to the IDAP and EPFL research institutes.
PyTorch has originally been built at Meta AI.
PyTorch mainly offers two things.
A tensor computing library following the numpy api closely, and Deep Neural Networks
The tensor computing library works both with a CPU and a GPU backend
and can therefore easily be used to help us overcoming the single-core computing boundary.
