"The blistering pace of innovation in artificial intelligence for image, 
voice, robotic and self-driving vehicle applications has been fueled, in 
large part, by NVIDIA NVDA -6.17%’s GPU chips that deliver the massive 
compute power required by the underlying math required for Deep 
Learning. While NVIDIA continues to reap the benefits of its investments 
in GPUs, there has been speculation that fixed function 
application-specific circuits (ASICs) might one day eclipse NVIDIA’s 
GPU-centric approach. This argument has been fueled in part by noting 
Google GOOGL -1.77%’s investment in its own custom ASIC for Deep 
Learning inference, the TensorFlow Processor Unit (TPU). "

Tensor? Flow? Just a new if not beautiful name for something old? :)

I guess all kids need good and reactive,responsive games?
And parents hate to take care of their kids themselves?
While the governments wanna educate kids to become their slaves?
