Jim Keller, a legendary CPU designer and the chief executive of Tenstorrent, this week announced that he had joined the board of directors of AheadComputing, a startup formed by ex-Intel engineers that develops 'breakthrough' application processors based on the RISC-V instruction set architecture. AheadComputing was established by Intel veterans working at the Advanced Architecture Development Group, the crème-de-la-crème of Intel engineers.
"Happy to announce I am on the board of AheadComputing," Jim Keller wrote in an X post. "Debbie Marr is the CEO, she is great. We are making the RISC-V ecosystem, rich, broad, and solid. CPUs, AI, support IP, and software. Open RISC-V is where you can innovate. Unconstrained."
