FPGA innovation is very incremental. The hyperflex architecture is basically the single biggest innovation in FPGA fabric, and it basically didn’t pay off. Altera also smashed up against the wall of Intel 10nm. So all in all, some reduced precision for AI and some EMIB enabled stuff isn’t too bad.

Needs better tools to take advantage of it, right now using hyperflex (registers on long routing lines to automatically pipeline your designs) is quite difficult from what I have heard.

Yeah, this was one of those situations where the hardware guys create a super cool thing that requires amazingly complex software to take advantage, and it turns out the software guys aren't going to solve all the problems you created.

Indeed, that was the downfall of Tabula (sniff)
