We are in the midst of one of the most transformative periods for data center infrastructure. The explosion of AI, cloud-scale workloads, and hyperscale networking is forcing rapid innovation not only in compute and storage, but in the very fabric that connects them. At the recent Hot Chips conference, Pat Fleming gave a talk on… Read More
In an era dominated by artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and high-performance computing (HPC), the demand for semiconductors that deliver high data throughput, low latency, and energy efficiency has never been greater. Traditional chip designs often struggle to keep pace with these requirements, leading… Read More
There is a lot of talk about where Intel went wrong, the latest is missing AI, but people seem to forget one of the more defining blunders in the history of Intel. In April of 2012 Kirk Skaugen, the new general manager of Intel’s client PC group, moderated a Q&A with Mark Bohr, a 33+ year Intel fellow, and Brad Heaney, the Ivy Bridge… Read More
“Most companies don’t die because they are wrong; most die because they don’t commit themselves. They fritter away their valuable resources while attempting to make a decision. The greatest danger is standing still.” Andy Grove’s Only the Paranoid Survive, first published in 1996.
Looking back 20 years, we all know this… Read More
A recent commentary from four former Intel board members argue that Intel should be split into two separate companies with separate CEOs and separate board of directors. Charlene Barshefsky, Reed Hundt, James Plummer, and David Yoffie wrote that Intel shareholders should insist on a split which would create a new, independent,… Read More
