But with demand for AI chips growing, RISC-V’s low cost, ease of customisation and energy efficiency have made it attractive to some chipmakers. RISC-V is free to use and has a simpler outline, often leading to more energy-efficient chips, and users can build atop the framework to suit their needs.
