Agreed. I don't think the point of the article to is to say that this is a never-before-seen type of event, but rather that the landscape is shifting again in the hardware space, as it does maybe once every couple of decades... and that software (compilers specifically) are going to be needed to enable and accelerate the shift of many workloads to ML Accelerators.

And the future of software is hardware. Which way is the pendulum swinging now? From which perspective? Why?
If you've been around for a swing or two this is nothing new. If not, it's earth shattering.
Anyone remember thick clients, then thin clients, and now thick clients again? Anyone want to guess when mobile-first starts becoming web-first?
