There’s pretty strong support for RISC-V and open source hardware in general at Google.
Are they doing it to try and capitalize / control the market? Somewhat. But I don’t see it as necessarily a bad thing. The ecosystem benefits from it ultimately which is my primary concern.
- wyldfire 6y agoOh yeah I'm sure Google in general is a fan just like all the other companies. But at some point in the (distant?) future, we will see Android phones and apps with RISC-V apps processors. Specifically the impact to android developers is what I'm curious about -- that's the challenge that google has to balance. Today there's support for x86_64 and arm, do they want to add the burden of rv64gc?
