I bought one of their machines to play around with under the expectation that I may never be able to use the NPU for models. But I am still angry to read this anyway.

AMD/Xilinx's software support for the NPU is fully open, it's only FFLM's models that are proprietary. See https://github.com/amd/iron https://github.com/Xilinx/mlir-aie https://github.com/amd/RyzenAI-SW/ . It would be nice to explore whether one can simply develop kernels for these NPU's using Vulkan Compute and drive them that way; that would provide the closest unification with the existing cross-platform support for GPU's.
