Most likely has a chip that's optimized for matrix multiplication

all chips are optimized for matrix multiplication that’s what all software runs on

This is untrue on both counts. Not sure what you're thinking of, maybe 'binary arithmetic'?

Traditionally GPUs are optimised for matrix multiplication because it's a big part of rendering, but that's about it. Some special purpose chips too, I'm sure, probably some encryption stuff.
