Google says it's 'very comfortable' with Tensor not winning benchmarks

TL;DR

Google says it's 'very comfortable' with Tensor not winning benchmarks- Google is “very comfortable” with Tensor chips not winning benchmarks, a company executive said.Google’s Pixel 6 and Pixel 7 phones are powered by semi-custom Tensor processors, but these SoCs don’t really take the fight to Apple, Qualcomm, and other chipmakers when it comes to most benchmarks.And if you look at what Google is trying to do by pushing AI innovations into a smartphone — because we feel like this is the approach that will deliver helpful experiences like some of the ones I just mentioned — classical benchmarks were authored in a time where AI and phones didn’t even exist.In fact, our own Tensor G2 testing shows that the Pixel 7 chipset lagged behind rivals when it came to peak results but actually beat some Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 phones in sustained testing.The company asserted that one Cortex-X CPU core (as seen in rival SoC designs) was only useful for winning benchmarks."
