Nvidia TensorCores, AMD Matrix Engines, Intel XMX Cores, all offer mat-mul acceleration in hardware, can be used for running CNNs as in Lc0, or in gaming for upsampling of video game resoultions. I think it is quite impressive to upsample 2K to 4K 3D w/o human-eye observeable difference, if you told me in ~2010 this will be psossible, I would say no way....

and, gamer and server brand GPUs differ meanwhile in architecture/feature set:

and, there are specific TPUs /ASICs out there, for optimized inference throughput:

Thank you for the summary and the valuable links to previous discussions. I am interested in hardware, but I don't follow it as avidly as you!
Human chess is partly about tactics and strategy, but mostly about memory
