• It really is a choice for Arm to use their 2023 based mobile X4 cores instead of their current C1 Ultras for this. Hopefully they step up quickly
  • This seems bad, doesn’t it? I already know that there has been friction between arm and their customers over higher licensing fees since the IPO just trying to put this in context.
    • I wonder what the people at Ampere are thinking right now
      • Wasn’t Ampere just bought by Softbank?
  • Not sure how to feel about this. Does this mean ARM is slowly moving from just licensing IP to actually competing with companies building on top of it?

    • This is my condensed version for the SBCwiki documentation focused on the key facts without all the unnecessary marketing around it
      • This is substantially more useful than the marketing fluff in the press release. Probably would have made sense to post this in that thread though
  • Yeah seems like competing with your customers is a bad idea.
  • ARM naming a chip AGI is either the most confident product launch in history or the best marketing we have seen in years. Probably both.
  • Their marketing department is smoking a lot of hopium. I will now think of it as the ARM MatMul Unit.
