Need to update the AI acceleration chapter to map more closely to the new alignment of the book chapters. Have a bunch of updates to push, so creating an issue to branch off of.

My current plan is to do something like this (pending some edits)

Chapter 11: AI Hardware Acceleration

11.1 Overview of AI Hardware Acceleration

Scope and Goals
Key Challenges
Chapter Organization

11.2 Evolution of AI Hardware Accelerators

Historical Context
From CPUs to Specialized Hardware
Current State of the Industry

11.3 Processor Architecture Primitives for ML

Vector Operations
Matrix Operations
Dataflow Patterns
Special Function Units

11.4 Memory Systems for ML Accelerators

Memory Hierarchy Design
Bandwidth and Latency
Data Movement Patterns
Novel Memory Architectures

11.5 Mapping Neural Networks to Hardware

Basic Building Blocks
Neural Network Components
End-to-End Model Mapping

11.6 Optimization Strategies

Performance Analysis and Bottlenecks
Hardware-Specific Optimizations
Model-Specific Optimizations
System-Level Optimizations

11.7 Hardware-Software Co-Design

Design Space Exploration
Model Optimization Techniques
Compiler Stack
Runtime Systems

11.8 Modern AI Accelerator Architectures

GPU Architecture
TPU and Systolic Arrays
FPGA Solutions
Emerging Architectures

11.9 Future Directions

Emerging Hardware Architectures
Novel Computing Paradigms
Research Directions
Industry Trends

11.10 Conclusion
