I think concepts remain the same, it just depends on who is making the silicon.
Consider these vendor architectures:
* Renesas RX
* Synopsys ARC
* TI MSP
* Atmel
* PIC
All of these have held pretty tightly to what RISC meant in the 90s.
Now consider:
* ARM
* Intel/AMD(x86)
* NVIDIA
And these have all become what CISC meant in the 90's.
The schism still holds, but I think most of the audience thinks only of "Intel vs. ARM" and forgets there are about two dozen mainstream CPU architectures still going strong in different segments.
