Hardware being proprietary doesn’t diminish the value of stealing code. In fact, there is much to be gained regardless of specific hardware, even if the code was super hardware dependent. And besides, what’s to stop them from developing similar hardware in the end? The point isn’t to just blindly run the code on their hardware, it’s to reverse engineer it. There’s also much more to a neural net than just the training of it. Its methods and architecture can be re-applied to different situations, regardless of what a stop sign or roads look like. In the same vein, iPhones use a different chipset than android phones but stealing Apple code and taking it to Google would still be of benefit.
