Modern graphics cards pack a lot of functionality. Shading units, Ray tracing, video encoding/deciding. NPU is just the part needed to accelerat Neural nets.
But you can accelerate nural nets better with a GPU, right? They’ve got a lot more parallel matrix multiplication compute than any npu you can slap on a CPU.
