Most activations functions are based on exponential functions.
I don't immediately see how cordic would help you calculate e^(x) unless x is complex valued (which it is usually not).

Generalized cordic can compute hyperbolic trig functions which gives you exponentials. That said, it's still not useful for ML because it's pretty hard to beat polynomials and tables.
