While Intel was a dominant player in the second and third epochs of the computing era, with its chips finding a home in PCs and data-center servers, Lipacis believes the current shift to parallel processing and the so-called Internet of Things will belong to different chip makers.<br \/>\n&#8230;<br \/>\n\u201cWe believe we are at the start of the fourth tectonic shift now, to a parallel processing\/IoT model, driven by lower memory costs, free data storage, improvements in parallel processing hardware and software, and improvements in AI technologies like neural networking, that make it easy to monetize all the data that is being stored,\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Intel seen losing to Nvidia amid \u2018tectonic shift\u2019 in technology &#8212; from marketwatch.com by Jeremy Owens Excerpts (emphasis DSC): Computing is undergoing a massive shift, and the company known for making the brains behind many of the world\u2019s computers and servers has not shifted as fast as competitors.
