I'm curious if ARM sees RISC-V as serious competition. I'm under the impression that the instruction set makes efficient and performant implementations rather d

  My personal view is that, for the next few years, no. There are some pretty critical features that RISCV is missing that makes ARM what it is today and so very prolific in your phones and desktops and even, recently, servers. Many hypervisor or virtualization and to some extent security extensions just aren't there for RISC-V, and on top of that, the software ecosystem isn't really all there yet for high performance. Currently though, RISC-V already is ingrained heavily in the embedded and IoT space and growing astronomically. That's where ARM is losing heavily, although in my opinion, the embedded space wasn't the money maker anyways for ARM
