Completely incomparable. Large printing is a narrow niche in art and technical photography, part of which is already covered by composites, and pixel size is a physical tradeoff for sensors. Cases for reasoning at realtime speeds are much, much more diverse, infinitely more diverse than anything we're currently using the big models for. Consider the fact that large models don't necessarily imply language. Speed is the major limiting factor for high-level automation. Coding is simply the immediate killer app that is useful right now, given the current state of AI - just like roleplaying and chatbots were previously.

Yes, but the point is the quality of inference is more important than speed. What good is speed if inference is shit?

It's not a tradeoff in this case, this is an optimized megakernel for the same model for better throughput. And no, in most cases accuracy can be sacrificed in favor of throughput or latency (assessing it automatically is the harder part).
