Are you talking about double-precision floating point math? Or are you saying the gaming chips actually have issues?

  It is just complete nonsense. In fact deep learning/AI chips used for neural networks usually have reduced floating point precision because they don't need it.

    Deep learning is still a fairly new and small field, scientific computing workloads are usually mostly double-precision.

    We don't need it because errors in any particular value aren't important - the calculations assume an amount of inherent error greater than that produced by the hardware.
