Kill GIL: How Python 3.14 Changes Concurrent Programming

Description

Python 3.14 introduces the long-awaited ability to disable the Global Interpreter Lock (GIL). Although this feature is still experimental, it has the potential to fundamentally reshape concurrent programming in CPython. This talk will explore the implications of GIL removal, focusing on how it enhances parallelism, the performance improvements for multi-threaded applications, and the challenges developers may encounter as they adapt to this new paradigm.
