As previously noticed, it is warmly suggested you use a GPU in order to train the examples proposed in this chapter. Managing to obtain results in a reasonable time using just a CPU is indeed impossible, and also using a GPU may turn into quite long hours waiting for the computer to complete the training. A solution, requiring the payment of a fee, could be to resort to Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud, also known as Amazon EC2 (https://aws.amazon.com/it/ec2/), part of the Amazon Web Services (AWS).
