Many believe that the future of chip design—and the development of new technologies like next-generation artificial intelligence (AI)—will depend on RISC-V architecture. RISC-V is an open standard developed through international collaboration. Participating in international standards like RISC-V is perceived as enabling firms to maintain greater control over their intellectual property and strengthen innovation across public and private sectors. However, some U.S. policymakers also worry that the RISC-V architecture standard could endanger U.S. national security and competitive advantage.
