A TensorFlow machine learning model on Compute Engine virtual machines (n2-standard -32) takes two days to complete framing. The model has custom TensorFlow operations that must run partially on a CPU You want to reduce the training time in a cost-effective manner. What should you do?

Change the VM type to n2-highmem-32

Change the VM type to e2 standard-32

Train the model using a VM with a GPU hardware accelerator

Train the model using a VM with a TPU hardware accelerator
