    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? ;)

          Then don’t get one? I don’t use tampons bit I don’t feel the need to yell about not buying them
