@going a pretty broad question, but i'll try 😁
 
hardware accelerated video processing on rk3588 and linux - https://github.com/blakeblackshear/frigate/discussions/11502
hardware accelerated NPU via linux - https://github.com/airockchip/rknn-toolkit2/
large language models (LLM's) using NPU - https://github.com/airockchip/rknn-llm
 
Its important to understand you will need a compatible kernel driver to connect to the hardware - most likely the best option is the vendor kernel 6.1.75 with armbian. Also this is a rapidly evolving space - hard to keep up!
 
Depending on what you read though, often the CPU can offer better performance, although it is dependent on your requirements and the ability to utilise the hardware effectively.

The overlay for the ap6275p seems to be missing in the new fresh 6.10 images. Haven't tried to compile a custom image yet (so might just be disabled in current build), but how could I help to bring this overlay to the official image?

Releasing packages on repo was purposefully delayed for a good week in order to keep with another expectation you have - that release software is well tested  What we help here is to lower % of breaking your old installations by delaying with releasing packages so images gives additional round of test resoults. Testing of one release exceeds budgets for hundreds  if not thousands of times. If you don't help with testing, its impossible to test. And you don't / very little. There is nothing we can do and only everyone of you can improve this. If you want better service, step up, help us maintain some small part, perhaps automation for repository management? Which is related to your problem. More people, better organisation, faster and better will be updates ... or at least not worse.

Once this is finished with success, packages will be uploaded to the repo:

https://github.com/armbian/os/actions/workflows/repository-sync.yml
Then few cycles of repository synchronisation:
 
https://github.com/armbian/os/actions/workflows/redirector-update.yml
Followed by re-director update, which serves, in theory, only mirrors that are up to date:
 
Someone needs to help maintaining this mechanism. 

If you expect drivers going up with the kernel, then you need to help here:

@ag123 @OttawaHacker I saw community builds already generated here. I could check that they have u-boot DRAM patch, so I tried both of them in my board, and they boot normally 🙂 also minimal one having HDMI output.

@OttawaHacker I already did it, you can find it attached here:
 
This is what I am trying to avoid.

Yes you should be able to run Sunshine - I haven't tested that one yet but it is supposed to be as good or better than Nvidia's GeForce LizardByte/Sunshine: Self-hosted game stream host for Moonlight. (github.com)

apt repository does not offer 23.05 packages (yet). Risk of break existing installation is too high so shipping is delayed or skipped entirely until 23.08 is released.
However you can always use the build framework to create your own set of firmware packages and install them via dpkg. https://github.com/armbian/build/

You could install the kernel from the debs folder, output/debs/linux-image... Mr Hacker😀
When you update the kernel from the apt repository you will loose the WiFi driver again. 
To build only the kernel as in the manual: ./compile.sh BUILD_ONLY=kernel KERNEL_CONFIGURE=yes BOARD=orangepi5 BRANCH=legacy
