It would probably not run on this potato directly, but on an accelerator (be it in-SoC or a separate thing like a Google Coral). The management and control of a Coral needs to happen on a CPU somewhere, but the actual work doesn't involve the CPU much, if at all.
So if you have a thing that has all the data and all the work done on an engine elsewhere and you just need to have a SoC to turn the thing on and off and get the data in and out, that's where a potato-SoC could work. Of course, the potato would need good distro support with up-to-date kernel, drivers, python, libraries etc. and if you're connecting it to the network, best make sure it's also getting patched consistently.
So, as far as ML Potatoes go, that's about it. It is a totally valid question by the way, even if asked in jest.
