Groq is not general purpose enough, you'd be stuck with a specific model on your chip.

I'm not sure what you mean. The GroqChip is general purpose numerical compute hardware. It has been used for LLMs, and it has also been used for drug discovery and fusion research (https://www.alcf.anl.gov/news/accelerating-ai-inference-high...).

[I work for Groq.]

And just in case it's not clear: I'm saying Groq can be used for arbitrary AI inference workloads, and we aim to be the fastest for all of them. We're not tuned to any specific model.
