Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. With growing popularity of AI more manufacturers and more users have devices specifically for increasing AI performance, like dedicated AI accelerator PCIe cards and NPUs integrated in processors. Soon those devices may become almost as important for some users as CPU or GPU. Currently systeminformation does not offer support for detecting such devices and their capabilities.

Describe the solution you'd like I would like systeminformation to detect AI accelerator devices and their features, such as: manufacturer name, device name, architecture, frequency, number of cores, supported AI frameworks,

Describe alternatives you've considered Using another module, possibly with other programming language, for detecting AI hardware.

Additional context Feel free to close this request if it is not planned, considered not useful for systeminformation users or impossible to implement.
