gollark: No, neural networks run on GPUs these days.
gollark: Just add a Palaiologos NN to CI processes.
gollark: If we get a Palaiologos NN that would *probably* cause the singularity.
gollark: Emulate Palaiologos in a REALLY big neural network.
gollark: I'm not going to be productive *anyway*, so it might be worth uselessly rerewriting in Rust.
