I believe Intel has been doing this for a while, or at least it's definitely not the first time I've heard of the idea. ‘Neutral network’ is more of a marketing term, though somewhat accurate in that it's a number of perceptrons doing statistical branch prediction. No multilayered networks (as far as I know) have been used in any CPU to date.

No. Perceptron predictors are very much an AMD thing, and they have been doing them for a while. Intel uses more traditional predictors but with larger buffers. Both approaches have situations that are more or less favorable to them.
