For simplifying let’s pick up the comparison of 2 virtual machines :

each one is well parametrized so they none of them can fill the ram, even if
they are alone (ex :max use 4Gb of ʀᴀᴍ and 64Gb available on the host).

Does the first virtual machine can read the ʀᴀᴍ of the second ? No !
Does the second virtual machine can read the ʀᴀᴍ of the first ? Neither !
In both case they share the same memory hardware.

The same apply to ɢᴘᴜs with ᴄᴘᴜs on ᴀᴘᴜs but with the hypervisor ᴏꜱ  being
replaced by a pure hardware one, so there’s no software parts (with the
exception of the memory allocated memory ratio being controllable in the ʙɪᴏꜱ 
or the ᴜᴇꜰɪ firmware)
