“This is our time,” said Redmond. “RISC-V is absolutely the definition of open computing. We have knocked down barriers and we have risen to opportunities. We have overcome challenges and reduced the barriers to entry.”
Next, she made the perhaps bold claim that RISC-V is inevitable. “It's here already,” she said. "It is going across all domains in computing. It is inevitable.” This intriguing notion of RISC-V being inevitable was later echoed and fleshed out in Krste Asanovic’s keynote, which we examine below.
Redmond then turned to discussing the global reach that RISC-V has achieved. “RISC-V is already seen in 10 billion cores globally,” she said. "Innovation is accelerating across all domains, from the lowest power to the highest performance. We’re seeing collective investment and understanding around the world. This ranges from companies investing and pivoting their strategies to RISC-V, to entire nations and regions investing in RISC-V.”
