I'm wondering, why there are still no announcements for hardware support of such approaches in CPUs.

Gustavson's last presentation starts with him holding an actual piece of hardware supporting posits, fwiw.

Wow, great! Thanks for pointing this out.

Just found an announcement:

Calligo secures funds to scale POSIT-based chip development (07.04.2025)

HP had proper deterministic decimal arithmetic since the 1970s.

Any link to that?
