Cool Chips - Hot takes
Organized by AiNEKKO, AiFoundry, OpenHW Foundation and 10xEngineers
Disclaimer: The event is not affiliated with HotChips, it's a separate initiative that might be interesting for the same crowd.
It's a gathering of likeminded people doing cool things with chips, silicon design and agentic systems.
6:00pm - Doors open
6:15pm - Opening Remarks from OpenHW Foundation, 10xEngineers and AiNEKKO
6:30pm - Dave Ditzel's keynote/AMA on Esperanto's Odyssey
7:00pm - Allen Rush presents on Agentic future of Esperanto's legacy and how it powers AI-Assisted Semiconductor Engineering for Edge-AI Hardware
7:20pm - Saad Nasir demos 10xEngineer's Agentic approach to programming modern GPUs, NPUs and anything else that claims to be an AI accelerator
7:40pm - Roman Shaposhink reflects on the Physical AI and why it may be the next frontier for silicon design; kicking off the un-conference part after that
The unconference part is
a place to discuss things that did not fit into the formal Hot Chips program or format;
more of a warm reunion / hangout for engineering, startup, and investor friends than a formal conference;
place to share ideas, discuss something, catch up, or show a demo;
reunion of people who have been working on RISC-V manycore architecture of Esperanto Technologies that is now open as part of OpenHW Foundation and AiFoundry (we'll bring some systems too!)
