- mtgx 7y agoArm is already freaking out about RISC-V, because some large companies (Western Digital, Nvidia, Alibaba, etc) have started preferring using the RISC-V ISA over Arm. Even Google's recent OpenTitan uses a RISC-V processor, when the company's own proprietary "Titan" predecessor used Arm Cortex-M3. It probably won't be long now before SoftBank/Arm resorts to patent trolling RISC-V chip makers.
