It's probably not a total lie, a dedicated chip for specific calculations is probably the only way that we'll see major jumps in processing power for a long while. It can be really effective for highly specific stuff. But the headline itself is certainly pure clickbait on the Verge's and Flow's behalf.

@antler@feddit.rocks Yeah, for sure, I thought the white paper and the idea was neat, and maybe even foreshadowing for what's to come.

Probably should've put a more descriptive title, but I was just being lazy.
