The Neural Processing Unit (NPU) provides integrated AI capabilities and can perform up to 11 TOPS making a total compute performance of 34 TOPS after including 5 TOPS from the CPU and 18 TOPS from the iGPU.

Seems like a strange statement. Is there any software that can leverage this NPU, let alone use the NPU/iGPU/CPU in combination? And any rate, there are definitely ML use cases where your CPU will be busy processing workloads from the ML processes.

Nothing uses the NPU as of now
