Caught between two very different technical and commercial models, Graphcore was formed to focus on server-side AI, and XMOS continued the quest towards low-cost embedded intelligence (edge-AI). Most recently XMOS enabled voice to become mainstream, releasing the XVF3510 – a disruptive high-performance, low cost far-field 2-mic voice interface. This was followed up with xcore.ai – a new crossover processor for the AIoT that brings AI, DSP, control and I/O together in a single device.
