The article says "Google's TPUs are proprietary and are not commercially available". But they '''are''' commercially available. https://coral.withgoogle.com/docs/accelerator/get-started/ . I've updated the article. [[User:Sayitclearly|Sayitclearly]] ([[User talk:Sayitclearly|talk]]) 13:43, 3 September 2019 (UTC)
 
Again, Google is appropriating the word "Tensor" for its own use. This is inappropriate: Words are for everyone to use and "tensor", like "vector", is no exception. For the uninitiated, tensor describes a field of vectors and is not at all bound to the AI. To the point, tensors were invented by italian mathematician Ricci-Curbastro to aid Einstein express his famous General Relativity in a single equation in an epoch were the computer hadn't even been invented, much less AI. The other words are "Processor" and "Unit", also, I believe, of general use. So should companies also have rights to CPU - Code Processing Unit, FPU - Floating Point Unit and GPU - Graphics Processing Unit? Of course not! So why would TPU - Tensor Processing Unit be the exception? Please, let's recover TPU for general use.
