    Yes, that’s right, NN can be run on either the CPU or GPU, but a GPU isn’t required. My point is that an NPU isn’t very useful for the average laptop user right now, while a GPU (which also accelerates neural network execution) is more versatile. In my opinion, it’s better to increase the GPU’s power and run NN on it when necessary than to add an NPU that’s useless 95% of the time.
