I’d really like to know this as well. NVidia has became very AI centric company but this has been a huge blind spot. GPUs with power and chip real estate wasted on rendering hardware are unnecessary and relics of legacy for deep learning. Why they haven’t yet designed CUDA++ only chip yet?

Probably because most of their customers don’t work with Google-like problems, and will not buy chips that are 10x faster on paper but 10 times slower on the problems they DO have, at 10x the price...
