They made new Tensor Computing Processor BM1680
Sophon BM1680 is customized AI ASIC for tensor computing acceleration. It is designed for both deep learning training and inference of neural networks like CNN, RNN, DNN etc.
Furthermore, chips will be implemented in IVA Server SS1 intelligent video and image analysis server.

As i understand it you can use it for learning algorithms or predicting also trendspoting it's not directly to produce some sort of krypto currency but maybe you can use it for lisk in the future.

Bitmain entering deep learning market perhaps?
Yes, and I think bitmain also has a pretty good picture of what will be coming...
They appear to be a very smart company.
also with all these extra batches of miners they were selling i was wondering if they were making room for a new miner....

Hello,
I also want to know more details.
They seem to be releasing a chip/processor and a GPU/video card?
What is their video card capable of in regards to mining zcash/eth?
I'd love to know since theyre worth ~600USD
CHEERS

I do not see this as competition to dSHA256 asics or other asics for mining. This will be a different thing. Did you read the conference paper I linked? Start from there...

it is a new business unit of bitmain
lol yes obviously but I'm interested what is sophon what does it do?
This.
Well, hopefully not.
haha oh shit! skynet... One of my most favorite movies growing up
but seriously WTF is sophon I read the article about one of the founders of bitmain meditating and came up with the idea inspired by some scifi book he was reading....

So I was just browsing around bitmains website and saw they added a new section, sophon.ai I clicked on it and it seems to be some sort of artificial intelligence (AI) does anyone know anything about this or what it's purpose is?
