More than a year after departing Intel, former CEO Pat Gelsinger has transitioned into venture capital, joining deep tech investment firm Playground Global as a partner to focus on early-stage investments in semiconductors, energy, and next-generation computing. He has set an aggressive goal: to enhance AI performance by 10,000 times. Gelsinger believes that achieving this objective hinges on novel chips, next-generation lithography technology, and a sufficient energy supply.
