TPU Hackathon: Neural Network Nonsense

Who needs a PhD when you’ve got caffeine and audacity?

Step into the shoes of an ambitious, underqualified developer at a tech startup, where your team has decided to build a Tensor Processing Unit (TPU) from scratch. With no actual hardware experience, you and your colleagues will explore zany, abstract realms of hardware design, coding, and trial-and-error as you try to piece together the puzzle of what makes TPUs tick. Each choice you make leads to wild results as you implement outlandish ideas, unwind math puzzles, and make absurd engineering propositions in an adventure that tests your logic and creativity. Can you succeed against all odds, or will you fry your circuits in hilarious fashion?
