RISC-V Is Inevitable: State of the Union Keynote Argues

I declared the RISC-V union strong as we pivot from embedded electronics to high-performance server markets. With major players like Google, Meta, and Nvidia adopting our open standard, the new RVA23 profile is enabling real server-class silicon. We are also introducing optimization guidance to ensure competitive performance and launching CHERI as a new base ISA for superior security, proving that RISC-V is the inevitable future of computing.

"Vendors that do not provide competitive performance will not be successful… and in this way, the optimization guidance options raise the bar on achievable RISC-V performance."
