      GPUs are already good at those things. But NPUs can be better at those things - and probably more energy efficient too - given optimized domain-specific models to work with.

        Cpus are already good enough for terminal display, why would I want a GPU? ;)

          This but unironically. I’m obsessed with off-grid, low power processing. I don’t want a stupid fucking NPU I won’t need nor use.
