There is already pretty cool stuff. Look at this developer board, you get a RISC-V Dual Core 64bit + an ESP32 (a full MCU for wifi + Bluetooth) on the same board and a camera for $24. That Risc-V chip is optimized for processing neural networks.

I have one of these and can confirm it's pretty good.

Don't expect a smooth out-of-the-box experience (things like the pin numbers don't match in different versions) but the hardware works and the software works enough to be able to use it.
