I understand that what Taalas is claiming. I was trying to actually describe that model on a hardware is some not something new Or unthought of The natural progression of FPGA is ASIC. Taalas process is more expensive And not really worth it because once you burn a model on the silicon, the silicon can only serve that model. speed improvement alone is not enough for the cost you will incur in the long run. GPU's are still general purpose, FPGA's are atleast reusable but wont have the same speed. But this alone cannot be a long term business. Turning a model to hardware in two months is too long. Models already take quite a long time to train. Anyone going down this strategy would leave wide open field to their competitors. Deployment planning of existing models already so complicated.
