What does the programming model look like for one of these (like at the assembly level)? I’m not even sure what to google.

I suspect it's more like an FPGA - massively parallel structures that don't fit traditional "programming" well.

Incidentally, FPGAs are also insanely expensive at the high end.

The article states that the programming model is TensorFlow or PyTorch. However, I'm not clear on the details of customizing TensorFlow or PyTorch code to run efficiently on this chip.
