Using Tensorflow to generate Verilog to run Tensorflow? That’s s flywheel that could destroy the universe.

Google Brain team homepage is a good general source of information [0], and the HotChips [1] conference is perhaps the best source for research information regarding latest ML ASIC designs from Google [2], Intel, ARM, Wave, IMG and others. Google TPU3 systems are discussed extensively, here [3].
