FastEmbed can also utilise GPU for faster embeddings. To enable GPU support, install
```bash
pip install 'qdrant-client[fastembed-gpu]'
```

```python
from qdrant_client import QdrantClient

# Initialize the client
client = QdrantClient(":memory:") # or QdrantClient(path="path/to/db")
client.set_model(client.DEFAULT_EMBEDDING_MODEL, providers=["CUDAExecutionProvider", "CPUExecutionProvider"])
```

> Note: `fastembed-gpu` and `fastembed` are mutually exclusive. You can only install one of them.
>
> If you previously installed `fastembed`, you might need to start from a fresh environment to install `fastembed-gpu`.
