Given enough time, we'll all loop back around to the Xeon Phi: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xeon_Phi

It was ahead of its time!

When I was in grad school I tried getting my hands on a phi, it seemed impossible.

Xeon Phi was so cool. I wanted to use the ones we had so much... but couldn't find any applications that would benefit enough to make it worth the effort. I guess that's why it died lol.
