I wouldn't label the Chinese SG2042 as representative of RISC-V as a whole. It is the XuanTie C910 open source core. It has been available for many years. I have no reason to question Jim Keller nor Wei-han Lien ability to deliver, with their proven track record of delivering. Tenstorrent presentation late last year talked chiplet availability in 2024. That's the best estimate we can work with, for Tenstorrent specifically. There's multiple other companies and cores we're aware of, and then the others we don't even know of. e.g. Rivos has a strong team that's been silently cooking something for a very long time now. It could emerge at any time.
