    This article was based off what the CEO said at the Second Annual AI Summit, following the news of their new head of GPU hire who says he “will lead GPU engineering with a focus on AI at Intel”. The AI pivot is the actual news.

      Oh so they will actually not focus on GPUs as end consumer products for you and me. They’re just like Nvidia and AMD. This news really just shows how cooked gaming is.

        I don’t know, perhaps gaming will get rejected AI chips with a few cores broken. The chip design requirements are slightly different but not completely foreign

      It’s not even a pivot. They’ve been focusing on AI already. I’m sure they want it to seem like a pivot (and build up hype); the times before apparently just having the hardware and software wasn’t enough. nobody cared when the gaudi cards came out, nobody uses sycl or onednn, etc

      Just what every consumer needs. More AI focused chips.

      Intel just trying to cash in on the AI hype to buy the sinking ship, as far as investors are concerned.

      Weird, they’re a bit late boarding this train as it already starts to derail…MS just stumbled hard as their AI shit isn’t paying off and it drives consumers away.
