Yes, a lot of weird decisions were made at Intel. Ironically, AMD waited so long to implement AVX-512, but now has it on both server and mobile chips (natively and 256 bit emulation, respectively). Intel started the whole thing, has a very fragmented stack and is now preparing those E cores with even more new extensions. Most importantly for Search and AI, it adds AVX_VNNI, which can be used for faster 8-bit integer dot-products: https://github.com/ashvardanian/SimSIMD/blob/75c426fb190a9d4286a9e9343925ecce8562abc1/include/simsimd/dot.h#L1815 https://github.com/ashvardanian/SimSIMD/blob/75c426fb190a9d4... Would be interesting to see how matrix multiplication throughput will differ between AVX-512-capable P cores and a larger quantity of AVX_VNNI-capable E cores!
