This is a dev board, not a consumer product. And (contrary to the title) the press release explicitly says that it is not intended for &quot;deep learning.&quot;<p>Acceleration is needed for training -- not running the models themselves. A quick glimpse of the power used (1 watt) lets you know exactly how much &quot;acceleration&quot; is going on in here. This is meant for tiny devices.<p>EDIT: My point is that this is a small-run dev board for a chip for some future $19 nannycam. It&#x27;s not an &quot;accelerator&quot; you install on your PC to put your graphics card to shame running TensorFlow.<p>EDIT #2: This is another one of those HN threads that&#x27;s overrun by enthusiasts. Jamming a chip onto a stick is simply how they sell embedded crap now.<p>Here&#x27;s a crypto chip that&#x27;ll really get you guys going: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.atmel.com&#x2F;tools&#x2F;AT88CK590.aspx" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.atmel.com&#x2F;tools&#x2F;AT88CK590.aspx</a>
