It doesn't seem to do anything special? You can probably run your favorite machine learning framework on the Raspberry Pi, and it will work - albeit using the ARM cores and NEON only. Now, machine learning and inference _using the Raspberry Pi's GPU part_ (which is broadly documented, unlike most GPU hardware) would be a gamechanger, if only for educational scenarios.

There is PlaidML[1] - a cross-platform deep learning framework that works, among others, on Raspberry Pi's GPU.

Edit: they don't support RPI GPU yet - https://github.com/plaidml/plaidml/issues/141
