This is most impressive. The interesting question to me, is outside of the LLM accelerator space: will generalized chips have massive leaps in performance once LLM technology is used to create the next generation? In general, will we see rapid advances while we extract the value of these models in creating architectures? I'm so far removed from the space that this is a very naive interpretation of all this, but I'm curious.

Existing CPUs have been extremely optimized by ~6 competing, well-funded teams. I expect AI to accelerate things somewhat but it's not clear that there is any low-hanging fruit available for AI to find.
