Microsoft, Intel, AMD, NVIDIA. Only one I didn’t see was Apple, hell even Raspberry Pi is there.

- Tepix 3y agoApple is also interested, they were hiring a RISC-V engineer back in 2021 already.
- cmrdporcupine 3y agoI can't a realistic scenario see Apple moves off Aarch64 at this point for their MPU. They're having boatloads of success with what they've done there. But I can imagine there's interest on their part in using something like RISC-V in supporting chipsets; modems, power mgmt, disk controllers, etc. That and having something in their backpocket "just in case."
- ComputerGuru 3y agoApple is the only company with a special licensing deal with ARM that lets them do whatever they want and develop their own ARM cores without relying on ARM IP or premade designs like everyone else. They've also sorted it out financially where they're probably not incurring incremental costs, though I think the details are secret.
