Nitin Dahad of EE Times moderates a panel with Sameer Wasson, CEO of MIPS, by GlobalFoundries, and Andrea Gallo, CEO of RISC-V International, for a conversation on how the industry must rethink chip design for agentic AI. Topics covered:

• GlobalFoundries’ acquisition of MIPS and the recent acquisition of the Synopsys ARC Processor IP solutions business and what it means for customers

• Why RISC-V is becoming the default ISA for new silicon designs

• The shift to software-first, workload-optimized architectures
