Yeah, I use php colab all of the time to run numpy stuff on gpus, I learned about it in my php data science class in university.

They’re basically equivalent now.

You're right, there is one area where Python has an advantage over PHP, but it has nothing to do with the language, really, and more to do with tools people have built to transform the language for other purposes. So it's sort of like saying Python and Ruby are completely different because Rails exists for one and not the other.

I rest my case...
