Like a lot of things on the Pi this might just be a PR stunt and be about as exciting as a sanctioned way to call APIs.

Remember when Wolfram came to the Pi? Runs too slow to be of use for anyone but it ships with every copy of raspbian.

>Perhaps the use-case is a fleet of Raspberry Pis?

This would be a waste of money, I know they're cheap but for a space that is working on GPU power anything CPU based isn't cost effective at all.




This may be a dumb question, but…

The Pi does have a GPU. Nothing amazing, but better than the CPU. Given this is public knowledge, why is the GPU being ignored in comments like yours?
