Hello, Chips! Chapter 9] Semiconductor for Artificial Intelligence, NPU ?! Already commercialized?

What thinks and process like a person? The name is NPU! (01:56)

Semiconductors that have evolved to mimic humans, and now we're at the point of imitating the brain.
The leading role player of the AI era is the NPU(Neural Processing Unit).
But just exactly how can a machine work like brain?

What are the operating principles of the NPU? (02:47)

Compared to current CPU and GPU used in existing AI, NPU is a 4x to 40x performance boost!
The reason for such great performance lies in the structure of the human brain!

AI's Core Technology Deep Learning, and NPU (05:20)

Deep Learning technology is what makes AI, AI.
Thanks to NPU that is optimized for deep learning, the emergence of self-reliant computers is not so far away...
Is there really a future where dreams are stored on chips and robots work for humans?

Starts as a NPU and even predicts the future?
We have no idea where it may end up, the exciting future of semiconductors.
In Episode 9 of 'Hello Chips!', we discuss it all.
