The demand for it is really, really big; so, I don\u2019t know, the next five years are going to be really interesting.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Keller stated that some countries\u2019 restrictions on the chip sector are not going to work out in the long run, \u201cbecause some of the technology is really open already, [and]\u00a0people publish a lot,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat turns out is [that], when you restrict one area, you just force that area to develop it by themselves, and then so far what\u2019s happened is that [it]\u00a0just means they catch up,\u201d he said. \u201cI hope we get to a world where it\u2019s more open and there\u2019s less restrictions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEvery company is kind of different, right, [and]\u00a0they have different cultures,\u201d he noted regarding his work at AMD, Apple and Tesla.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe thing that works best is when the team is driving towards a really good goal, like a great product, and then I really like when the engineers can own their own work and be really inspired about what they do every day and who they work with,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019d like to create a really open environment where everybody gets to learn, gets to do something, [and]\u00a0gets to own their destiny,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>The 45th iteration of GITEX Global kicked off on Monday and it will continue until Friday, with the participation of 6,800 companies from 180 countries.<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The development of AI chips will become easier and cheaper with open-source technology, \u201cas long as the hardware chips are really programmable and people can be creative about how they build the new solutions,\u201d said a chip expert.
