Listen ""GPUs are overkill for AI" – Opening Voices with Philippe Notton & Craig Prunty – SiPearl"
Episode Synopsis
Why are CPUs making a comeback in the age of AI? And how can Europe build a sovereign compute infrastructure in a world dominated by American and Asian tech giants?In this final episode of Opening Voices with the SiPearl team, I sit down with Philippe Notton (CEO) and Craig Prunty (VP) to explore the future of processor design and its impact on AI, sovereignty, and Europe’s industrial strength.We discuss:🔹 Why CPUs can outperform GPUs in inference workloads🔹 How SiPearl’s chip design drastically reduces energy consumption🔹 The growing importance of chiplet architectures for modular compute🔹 Why Europe needs its own electronic design cloud infrastructure🔹 How to reclaim industrial skills and build a sovereign value chain🔹 The difference between SiPearl and ASML in the semiconductor ecosystem🔹 Why sovereignty isn't about isolation—but about control and resilienceWhat role should Europe play in the next wave of AI infrastructure? Join the conversation in the comments.Subscribe for more deep dives into Europe’s tech future.🎧 Opening Voices is also available on all streaming platforms:— Deezer: https://www.deezer.com/show/1001774171— Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3QTe4gKhsmhWnlLZaUxNo1— Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/fr/podcast/opening-voices/id1806281823Hosted by Ausha.
