I would imagine there’s a kernel of truth to it. It’s probably correct, but for one rarely used operation, or something like that. It’s not a total revolution. It’s something that could be included to speed up a very particular task. Like GPUs are much better at matrix math than the CPU, so we often have that in addition to the CPU, which can handle all tasks, but isn’t as fast for those particular ones.
