Podcast with Tenstorrent COO Keith Witek on smart data processing, the present impact, and the future of AI hardware
For our 28th episode of “This Is Our Mission,” Rob Telson hosted a wide-ranging discussion between Tenstorrent COO Keith Witek and Brainchip CMO Nandan Nayampally. Their conversation explored the compute landscape, trends in AI, and differences and commonalities between the two companies’ approaches.
Witek holds degrees in Business, Computing, Electrical Engineering,
and Law and has several patents. Prior to Tenstorrent, he ran Strategic
Alliances for Google consumer electronics, was SVP of Corporate Development and General Counsel at SiFive, was Director of Technology Enablement and Associate General Counsel at Tesla, was Corporate VP of Strategy and Corporate Development at AMD, and had many other teaching, legal, and engineering roles. Witek serves on the board of entrepreneurial hub StartingBlock Madison.
Nayampally’s career has been immersed in the semiconductor arena,
starting with AMD. He spent most of his career in IP — first with Denali
Software and then at Arm — building the CPU business and later running the Client Line of Business as VP and General Manager, giving him expert insight into the waves and trends in compute. He also worked at Amazon as Alexa’s Head of SDK Products. Nayampally holds degrees in Computer Science and Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology, Mumbai, and the University of Texas atAustin.
In this episode, you can get their views on:
- Why AI is here to stay
- Real-life impacts of AI, like reducing car-related
fatalities and personalizing healthcare
- Challenges that currently limit the scalability
of AI, such as massive data loads and the slowing of Moore’s Law
- How innovators in the industry, including
BrainChip and Tenstorrent, are overcoming these barriers
- Which deployment models for technology hold the
most promise, including a discussion on chiplets
- And lots more
