# Device

The type of processor to use to process question answering models. You can use one of the following values:

- CPU

- CUDA

To use the CUDA option, you must have a compatible GPU available for use, or Knowledge Discovery fails with an error. It does not default to using the CPU if there is no compatible GPU available.

This parameter has an effect only when Type is set to `ExtractiveQuestionAnsweringLLM` or `GenerativeLLM`.

Type: | String
Default: | CPU
Required: | No
Configuration Section: | MyLLMModule
Example: | `Device=cuda`
