it's a very interesting product - sort of the lovechild of a 1980s bitsliced microcode system optimized for application-specific pipelines (systolic array, etc).

do you know whehter it's had any serious design wins? I can easily imagine it being interesting for missile guidance, maybe high-speed trading, password cracking/coin mining. you could certainly do AI and GPUs with it, but I'm not sure it would have an advantage, even given the same number of transistors and memory resources.
