"Bionic chip"... what on earth is this supposed to mean? Are they running out of fancy PR words in the dictionary?
- kyriakos 9y agoAnother word for big little configuration I assume

- agumonkey 9y agoI thought it was Apple branding deep learning on a chip... so far it's not ps: annnd it was. I've been cooked.
- Karunamon 9y agoAbout the same as "A" followed by a number. Or "Pentium" or "Athlon". They're just marketing names, nothing to be upset about.
- felippee 9y agoI'm not upset, but A1234 looks like a chip name, "pentium" is not a dictionary word, fine. But "bionic" has a meaning, following the dictionary: bionic |bīˈänik| adjective having artificial body parts, especially electromechanical ones. • informal having ordinary human powers increased by the aid of bionic devices (real or fictional): working out in gymnasiums to become bionic men. • relating to bionics. Clearly nothing related to this chip. In my book that is crossing the line between PR and BS.
