    The sad part of this is that all those powerful NPUs are basically paperweight.

    35-50 low power TOPS taking 1/5 of the die area and not being used by anyone...

      Mine is used for background retouches, and possibly speech recognition when dictating (Firefox had to download a model the last time I think...).

      The potential is there, software just needs to catch up.

      As usual Microsoft messes up marketing and abandons the possibly usable tech before it spreads. Then competitors will be successful with it and Microsoft will lag behind. Good strategy, bad execution, as standard MS practice.
