    Agreed, but my point is that stating “x-core CPU, y-core GPU, z-core NPU”, is basically non-information.

    • CPUs run general logical processing
    • GPUs run integer/float matrices
    • NPUs run minimal effort matrices for inference

    I’d like to see the TOPS for each of those, instead of a “core count” that tells me nothing about actual performance. Even the TOPS are orientative… but would be a good start.
