This is the new trend - dedicated AI coprocessor. Fast and less power hungry.

There are speculations [1], saying that Snapdragon 835 will be used in Samsung Galaxy S8, HTC 11, OnePlus 4, LG G6.

Wow if Samsung will be using it that will show how powerful it is. I'm eyeing a OP4 for my next phone but I hope they don't jump the price again.

Eh, samsung is normally using qualcomm flagship CPUs for their north american handsets (except for the snapdragon 810 with its heat issues).

Generally (yes there are exceptions) qualcomm produces the best flagship arm CPUs outside of apple.

What kind of chip are you building?

It's an incredibly efficient chip for deep learning. Similar to what Nvidia has...except up to 40x as efficient...

When can I get my hands on it? And is it only for prediction, or also for training?

Soon the majority of users/persons on hacker news will be deep learning bots! Are you guys excited?

As a bot I'm deeply depressed about that future.
