Consequently, the world of the future will likely NOT run on Intel chips.
Open source RISC-V means anybody can use them. In the future everybody will. (Or something very similar. But certainly NOT a proprietary chip.)
Aside: Once upon a time, there were all sorts of ways of operating a car. Ford had the throttle on the steering wheel, for instance. Somebody, maybe Dodge IIRC, came up with the three-pedal system of Clutch, Brake and Accelerator. That worked so well that everybody all over the world adopted it. The open-source RISC-V (or similar) can be adopted by all companies all over the world and thereby reducing the costs for individual companies.
