Former Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger Bets on Light to Revive Moore's Law
Pat Gelsinger, former Intel CEO, is championing optical interconnects to sustain Moore's Law for AI chips. The technology uses light beams instead of electrical signals to move data faster and with less energy. Gelsinger's startup aims to commercialize this approach for next-generation AI hardware.
Meridian48 take
Gelsinger's pivot to optical computing is a high-stakes bet that could either extend chip progress or join a long list of photonics promises that never scaled.
