[Intel CEO: Developing a New Memory Architecture Similar to 'CPU + Memory Stacking'] BlockBeats News, August 13 — Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger stated during the latest episode of the TechSurge podcast: 'We are very excited about Agentic AI, and there is a massive demand for CPUs. I receive calls from many CEOs every day, all of them wanting more CPUs, so we need to significantly ramp up CPU production capacity to ensure we can meet their needs. Secondly, there are also some new CPU architectures to address emerging requirements. Furthermore, I believe there are many ways we can 'stack' and collaborate in the areas of CPUs and memory, and we also need to explore some new memory architectures. I think, to some extent, innovation in the memory space has been somewhat lacking, so there’s definitely some great potential here. I didn’t invest in memory in the past because I felt it was somewhat like a commodity business, but the situation is different now, with many new developments emerging. So we are paying attention — one of my personal 'favorites' is researching new memory architectures. And you may have seen the news: I’ve brought in my good friend Shock Lee (Li Shuo Xi), who was previously the head of SK Hynix, so you might guess what I’m contemplating — although we’re not ready to disclose anything yet, I’m always thinking about certain directions. I consider short-term, mid-term, and long-term needs. Typically, when I join a startup, I stay for 10 years — a full decade; it was the same at Cadence, and at Intel, it’s been 15 years. I’ve also told the board that I’m not someone who only looks at the short term; I’m looking at the future 10 or 15 years down the road — how do we build a larger platform that truly benefits the entire industry? And being able to contribute even a little to the industry is quite an interesting thing.' [Original Link]
