Since it looks like we're going to be saddled with NPUs in our hardware from now on, is there anything useful (i.e. NOT AI) that they can be used for?
AI and NPUs - in the past also called "digital signal processor" - can be used for useful things, such as graphics up-scaling, mic noise reduction, background blur in video and other stuff.
Unfortunately, most algorithms still rely on CPU or GPU.
