gollark: No, FLOPS is just FLoating point OPerationS.
gollark: Floating point operations a second.
gollark: Mine has int4s and int8s and whatever but I don't know what it can do with those, and it's really recent.
gollark: Bitops? Do those exist whatsoever on GPUs *either*?
gollark: GPUs are actually *not* good for branchy tasks, so if it involves those you MAY implode.
