SIMT earns its generality by deferring decisions to run time. Edge inference is compiled ahead of execution, so that machinery draws power to absorb an uncertainty the workload does not contain. A Chimera core removes the machinery and keeps the generality.
On a machine built from a neural accelerator, a vector DSP and a host CPU, deciding where to cut the graph costs you on every inference for the life of the product. On a Chimera core there is nothing to cut.
