I guess I have to reject the premise of the article as such.
This is clearly not the case. Most programmers know next to nothing about CPU and rely on the compiler or the runtime / VM to make “computer go beep boop”. And they are fine with it, because they don’t feel like they need to know either. Hence, the premise that " everyone should know about GPU programming" cannot possibly have merit.
You are most certainly correct
“What every developer needs to know about X” is just the best way to get clicks these days
Then they are shitty random articles, sometime with a very dumb tutorial in it. Whenever my coworkers sent articles like this my eyes start rolling so hard I could use them to produce energy
