AMD CEO: The Next Challenge Is Energy Efficiency
I think because general compute is hard to parallelize, so 256 cores doesn't help much in practice. (Compute that does parallelize well already runs on GPU).

I get that hugely parallel applications already run on the gpu, but wouldn't something like 4 power and 28 efficiency cores kinda make sense?

Not as much as say, 4 power cores, 4 efficiency cores, and 24 gpu cores.
