It's a pretty big leap from lots of little parallel (and I assume 1D) FFTs to a deep learning processor. The rexcomputing chip looks like a DMA-driven systolic array with beefier data-processing units than I've ever seen before. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systolic_array https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systolic_array There are certainly applications for this sort of processor (embarrassingly parallel batches of small independent units of work), but I'd be highly skeptical that this guy has anything close to a "magical compiler(tm)" given his inaccurate understanding and significant underestimation of the competition. That's dangerously close to Intel's absurd "recompile and run" nonsense for Xeon Phi (It's anything but that)...
