Recently WiFi encryption was brute forced by using the parellel processing power of the modern GPU. What other real-life problems do you think will benefit from similar techniques?

Image processing which is just fancier signal processing which is massively parallel math.
given that, perhaps face recognition, voice recognition, video decode/encode, audio decode/encode, encryption/decryption

Most batch-processing tasks can be parallised and are well suited to the stream processors in GPUs. Folding. Seti. All those gubbins are already working well on GPUs.

In fact, check out this page for a lot more examples of where GPGPU has been used.
To name a few.
