The license patch sates the program and its derivative work will neither be modified or executed to harm any human being nor through inaction permit any human being to be harmed.

Computers use power.

For a variety of reasons, use of any type of power can cause humans to come to harm, either directly (accidental electrocution, short in electronics causes fire, etc.) or indirectly (coal mining accident when mining coal destined for a power plant, nuclear power plant accident, sliver in finger from broken solar panel, possible global warming, etc.)

Thus any use of GPU whatsoever is illegal under the license "patch."
