Neural processing units (NPUs) - statistics & facts
With artificial intelligence (AI) advancing at a rapid pace, traditional central processing units (CPUs) and graphics processing units (GPUs) are being pushed to their limits. While much of the discussion in recent years has revolved around training AI models, the focus on AI inference is now taking center stage; particularly the real-time execution of AI models to generate insights and decisions. And this is where neural processing units (NPUs) come into their own, enabling energy-efficient, high-speed AI acceleration on devices like PCs, smartphones, and even in data centers.
