The work Esperanto is doing take the vector concept to a mind boggling extreme: link to this video I want to write code for their chip!

On “Leveraging RISC-V for AI and Machine Learning”

I'm not sure about REX, but Esperanto is pretty far away from greenarrays. From what I got out of their talk at the latest Risc-V workshop3 (video1, slides2), they're going for the big high-performance end of the spectrum. The chip they were talking about is supposed to have 16 64-bit OoO Risc-V cores and 4096 RV64GC cores with vector units connected by some sort of network on chip. 1 link to this video 2 link 3 link

On this talk : - link to this video - link to this video => yes and no The industry lack's of wide profiles (hardware engineer with good software understanding) is really hurting any new innovative HDL

On “New Libre GPU Effort Based on RISC-V”

…V with Tensors (see below), sadly not open-source. This Libre GPU project is going a slightly different route targeting the Simple-V, a slimmer version of the Vector extension, Simple-V. See: link Esperanto Technology is devloping a chip (and IP) that will do this, but it will be closed source (as far as we know). See this talk by David Ditzel: link to this video…
