CEO Kissinger: Intel will strive to surpass Moore's Law and surpass its competitors in 2025

On October 29, according to foreign media reports, Pat Gelsinger, CEO of U.S. chip giant Intel, said on Thursday that the company will strive to surpass Moore's Law and launch new processors, first catching up with competitors in 2024 and then surpassing them in 2025.

First coined by Intel co-founder Gordon Moore, Moore's Law describes the speed at which processor innovation is evolving. Although the law has been questioned in recent years, Kissinger said it "still applies."

Speaking at Intel's innovation campaign, Kissinger said: "Today we predict that over the next decade, we will continue to maintain Moore's Law, even faster than Moore's Law." As stewards of Moore's Law, we will relentlessly follow the path of innovation. ”

Intel's leadership in the chip industry has faltered in recent years as the company struggles to meet manufacturing milestones. This led to the loss of Apple's Mac processor business, and also caused Intel to lag behind competitors such as Samsung and TSMC.

Still, Intel doesn't seem to be giving up on the fight. In early October, Kissinger even said the same thing, claiming that he would "never give up on any idea that doesn't run on Intel chips."

Moore's Law originally applied to the number of transistors on a chip. More specifically, the number of transistors on the processor doubles every two years. Since then, however, the term has shifted to refer to performance and power consumption. Kissinger appears to have reversed that definition back to the number of transistors, saying Intel expects to "reverse the curve even faster than doubling every two years."

Kissinger said Intel is confident of catching up with TSMC and Samsung by 2024. By investing and upgrading to more advanced chip manufacturing technologies, the company hopes to surpass them in 2025.

With competitors like Apple Silicon driving out most of the competitors in the market, it remains to be seen whether Intel's hopes will materialize. (Small)
