By some coincidence RISC-V became successful just before/while AI took off. I'm glad it did. The design is pretty good for low end cores and probably good enough for high end cores, so there's a chance it will become one of the dominant ISAs in the mid-term.
We're probably getting to a point where AIs will just generate optimized binaries directly, so I'd rather have them generate them in a machine language that is human friendly. RISC-V being designed by humans with a focus on simplicity is close to the best we could wish for.
