    Maybe I’m just not understanding what AI-enabled hardware is even supposed to mean

      It’s hardware specifically designed for running AI tasks. Like neural networks.

      An NPU, or Neural Processing Unit, is a dedicated processor or processing unit on a larger SoC designed specifically for accelerating neural network operations and AI tasks. Unlike general-purpose CPUs and GPUs, NPUs are optimized for a data-driven parallel computing, making them highly efficient at processing massive multimedia data like videos and images and processing data for neural networks
