On “What Makes AI and GPUs So Compatible?”

…(I realize you're not likely to need one just yet, but "can't access at all" makes for something much less interesting to file away.) - Forth, Inc. makes the GA144, a 144-core microcontroller that natively runs Forth (and will NOT comfortably run transpiled <any other language here>). At one point a production company was making evaluation boards. link to this video is a (1hr long, somewhat slow-paced) presentation that provides a good overview of the GA144.
