An... AI PC? As in a neural engine or something? Will it help with running LLMs? I'm not sure what that is.

Now I have to look up what an NPU is, what it does and what it's for. Completely new territory for me. I thought it was all CPUs and GPUs, maybe specialized hardware for mining crypto but NPUs?

    unless i'm misunderstanding it, an npu is a vector coprocessor without the graphics stuff

    That sounds limited to LLMs.
