I can’t agree with that. ASICs can specialize to do one thing at lightning speeds, and fail to do even the most basic of anything else. It’s like claiming your GPU is super powerful so it should be able to run your PC without a CPU.
That's fair, dedicated ASICs for AI acceleration are totally a valid consumer product, but I meant more along the lines of independent devices (like Rabbit R1 and the AI Pin), not components you can add to an existing device. I should have been more clear.
