Intel CEO: AI to be Integrated into All Intel Products
Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger announced during the company’s Q2 2023 earnings call that Intel is planning to incorporate
artificial intelligence (AI) into every product it develops. This comes as Intel prepares to release Meteor Lake, its first consumer chip with a built-in neural processor for
machine learning tasks.
Previously, Intel had hinted that only their premium Ultra chips would feature AI coprocessors. However, Gelsinger’s statement suggests that AI will eventually be integrated into all of Intel’s offerings.
Gelsinger often emphasizes the “superpowers” of technology companies, which typically include AI and cloud capabilities. However, he now suggests that AI and cloud are not mutually exclusive.
Gelsinger points out that certain AI-powered tasks, such as real-time language translation in video calls, real-time transcription, automation inference, and content generation, need to be done on the client device rather than relying on the cloud. He highlights the importance of edge computing, where AI processing occurs locally, rather than relying on round-tripping data to the cloud.
Gelsinger envisions AI integration in various domains, including consumer devices, enterprise data centers, retail, manufacturing, and industrial use cases. He even mentions the potential for AI to be integrated into hearing aids.
This strategy is crucial for Intel to compete with Nvidia, the dominant player in AI chips powering cloud services. While Nvidia has seen immense success in the AI market,
Intel aims to find its own path by integrating AI into their products. This aligns with the growing demand for edge computing and the desire for more localized AI processing.
Furthermore, Gelsinger’s remarks highlight the shift in the tech industry towards AI-driven innovation. Microsoft, for example, has embraced AI, with the forthcoming Windows 12 rumored to integrate Intel’s Meteor Lake chip with its built-in neural engine. Similarly, Microsoft’s AI-powered Copilot tool is expected to revolutionize document editing.
Overall, Intel’s plans to incorporate
