    Sadly nothing about why Pat was forced out of Intel. Panther Lake is quite a good CPU and 14A looks like it'll be a competitive process. IMO, it vindicates the decisions that Pat made a few years ago and wasn't able to see through to completion.

    "Designing microprocessors is like playing Russian roulette. You put a gun to your head, pull the trigger, and find out four years later if you blew your brains out." (Robert Palmer, former DEC CEO)

    I'm surprised that his bizarre fascination with "Christian AI" and the end of the world didn't come up.

      Speaking of that, Anthropic is getting priests to try and teach Claude ethics

      For anyone reading. Gelsinger won the contest. He took ~42 pushups.

    I thought it was extremely strange that he posted so much religious stuff from official Intel accounts.

      Source? I've only seen him post religious stuff on his personal social media.
