At Computex in Taiwan, Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger introduced new Xeon 6 chips and Lunar Lake chips, promising to innovate the AI industry and boost global economic performance.
In the context of the chip market witnessing fierce competition, CEO Pat Gelsinger affirmed that Intel is leading the AI revolution with products optimized in performance, energy efficiency and price. Intel's Gaudi System, used for advanced AI applications such as model training, is one-third the price of its competitors.
Mr. Gelsinger's statement is an affirmation of Intel's position against competitors such as Nvidia and Qualcomm, giants who are also actively developing AI chip products for personal computers and servers.
Previously in May, Microsoft introduced the AI Copilot+ PC line with AI features integrated into the Windows operating system. These computers will be provided by the world's leading manufacturers such as Dell, HP, Samsung and Lenovo, and will integrate AI directly on the device instead of just through the internet.
Intel's forecast, based on research by Boston Consulting Group, shows that by 2028, 80% of the PC market will be AI computers. This shows the great potential of the future AI chip market, while also increasing the heat of competition between technology giants.
Also at Computex, Intel officially announced details about the new Lunar Lake architecture - the flagship processor for the new generation of AI PCs. Lunar Lake possesses breakthroughs in graphics and AI processing capabilities, as well as the ability to save power for thin and light computers, providing up to 40% higher SoC performance and fast AI processing capabilities. more than 3 times.
According to the plan, Lunar Lake is expected to officially reach consumers in the third quarter of 2024 and will be equipped on more than 80 AI PC models from 20 original equipment manufacturers (OEMs).
Computex, the leading technology forum in Taiwan, has become the epicenter of the AI chip war. Taiwan, with its thriving semiconductor industry, plays an important role in the global supply chain, from iPhones to servers running ChatGPT. The island produces the majority of advanced semiconductor chips, including those needed for the most powerful AI research and applications.
The Taiwanese government is promoting AI development, with the goal of turning Taiwan into an "AI smart island". However, Taiwan's central position in the semiconductor chip supply chain is also a source of concern for governments and businesses worldwide, due to political tensions between Taiwan and China.
