Linus Torvalds: RISC-V Repeating the Mistakes of Its Predecessors [video]
The speaker discusses open development in hardware architecture, emphasizing RISC-V's challenges and historical mistakes. Early software developer involvement is crucial to prevent issues. Despite limited support for RISC-V, transitioning between hardware platforms is becoming easier with cloud computing standardization.
Read original articleThe speaker in the YouTube video talks about the advantages and obstacles of open development in hardware architecture, particularly focusing on RISC-V and the risk of repeating historical errors. They stress the significance of involving software developers early on to avoid such pitfalls and point out the difficulties in creating new hardware architectures. The speaker shows disappointment at the insufficient backing for RISC-V but acknowledges the growing simplicity of shifting between hardware platforms and the standardization in cloud computing.
