In this week’s podcast, Amol Borkar from Cadence and I explore the major trends in high-performance audio and voice AI. We also investigate how the demanding new use cases in automotive are dramatically increasing audio workloads and how Tensilica HiFi iQ DSP is addressing the increasing requirements for voice AI and immersive audio.

When conversations turn to semiconductor foundries, they typically begin with leading-edge process nodes and the race toward ever-smaller geometries. However, although nanometer bragging rights dominate headlines, something quieter—and arguably more consequential—is unfolding elsewhere in the industry.
The reason for my newfound perspective is that I was just chatting with James Prior, who is a Marketing Executive at < … Read More → "Physical AI at Foundry Scale"
As usual, my head is aswirl (like “awash,” but a tad less rambunctious) with cogitations and ruminations about all the once-impossible things I’ve been exposed to recently. I feel like the White Queen in Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Carroll, who famously said, “Why, sometimes I’ve believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.” All I can say is that she was an amateur … Read More → "I Doff My Cap to the New Hailo RPi AI HAT+ 2"
This week we are diving deep into a revolution happening at the speed of light: the rise of photonic technology! My special guest is Dr. Abdul Rahim from PhotonDelta. Abdul and I discuss how photonic chips can address the energy efficiency demands posed by the current and projected growth of AI workloads, the role that standards will play in the next wave of hardware innovation, and … Read More → "Revolution at the Speed of Light: How PhotonDelta Building a Global Photonics Ecosystem"
I’ve said this until I’m blue in the face, but no one seems to want to listen: As I discussed in one of my “What the FAQ” columns (see What the FAQ are VR, MR, AR, DR, AV, and HR?), augmented reality (AR) is but a subset of mixed reality (MR), which also embraces diminished reality ( … Read More → "Dipping Our Toes Deeper into the AI+AR Computing Waters"
This is going to be a story in three parts. If we’re lucky, they’ll be related, but I’m not making any promises. Let’s start by discussing one of the things I know nothing about. Yes, I know this is a long (and ever-growing) list, but in this case, I’m thinking about the design and analysis of antennas and radar systems.
The closest … Read More → "Beyond the Spherical Chicken: Rewriting Maxwell for Modern Machines"
