Very excited to hear about this new system. It would be wild if they incorporated AI into it somehow.

Many of the modern RISC chipsets have neural cores specific to AI.
I'm not sure how they could be used in a home console (maybe not at all) as they're usually used for predictive typing and other device specific algorithms. I suppose it depends on whether or not Nintendo or third party developers use AI algorithms in their games that would benefit - perhaps character behaviour in game, maybe some kind of rendering or graphical effects.

Either way, if Nintendo requires these features for their next hardware, chances are it's going to be used in some interesting ways.

On another note relating to extra cores, I hope Nintendo has enough cores to handle the core applications (namely the EShop) correctly this time around. I've been finding myself navigating through the website version of the EShop these days because the console version of it doesn't run smoothly (skippy videos, loading issues, etc...). Although, it's probably more of a memory issue rather than a chipset performance issues. I understand some of the concepts, but I'm not an engineer.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
