Matrix math is just stupid for whatever you pipe through it. It does the input, and gives an output.

Indeed.

That is exactly what all these "NPU" co processing cores are about from AMD, Intel, and to a further subset Amazon and Google on whatever they're calling their chips now. They are all about an input and output for math operations as fast as possible.

Yes, they are all matrix math accelerators, and none of which have any FPGA aspects.

Except AMD XDNA is a straight up FPGA, and Intel XEco is as well.

For someone who claims to work in this industry, you sure have no idea what's going on.
