Inference only. (So this is competing with Google TPUv1; a few years late and way more expensive, but with more memory)

- my123 6y agoIt can do training with its GPU, not the fastest thing in the world though.
- fizixer 6y agoSo looks like it can do "checkbox training" (add an iota of training capability just so you could check the box labelled "it does training"). Got it.
- wmf 6y agoYou can't put a TPUv1 in a car because Google doesn't sell them.
- rrss 6y ago1. This isn't inference only, it has the full capabilities of a normal GPU, just small and low power (and therefore much slower than normal GPUs). 2. TPUv1 is a matrix multiply ASIC that requires a host CPU to do anything. This thing is a SoC that includes both a CPU and a GPU. The CPU is pretty fast for what it is - much faster than e.g. raspberry pi, see https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=nvidia-jetson-xavier&num=3 https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=nvidia-j.... 3. not sure how you know whether this is more expensive than a TPUv1, since the TPUv1 was never sold or available outside of google. A much better comparison would be between this and the Edge TPU development board.
