Most ordinary home users don't care about GPU or local AI performance that much. Right now, sure. There's a reason why chip manufacturers are adding AI pipelines, tensor processors, and 'neural cores' though. They beli

At that point you create an entirely new API, fully versioned, and backwardly compatible (if you want it to be). The point the article is making is that AI, in theory, entirely removes the person from the coding process so there's no l
