I managed to catch up with Aart in December 2023, just before the handover, for his final on-camera interview as CEO. In this interview, we cover the industry highlights over the years – the growth of chips and EDA, the cycle of performance and efficiency, the systemic complexity of 2D and 3D chip design, the role of machine learning, and finally the handover to the new CEO.
[00:00] Intro
[00:30] Big moves in EDA
[03:16] Did you imagine EDA would get this big?
[05:51] How has the attitude to chip design changed?
[10:38] Were trying chiplets again?
[12:41] What does software need for vertical stacking?
[14:15] Ideas: from internal or from customers?
[15:16] How has Synopsys integrated ML into EDA?
[20:26] ML vs abstraction in EDA
[23:01] EDA is expensive?
[28:00] Proliferation of Semi CEOs
[31:30] Stepping down as Synopsys CEO
[35:05] Advice for the new CEO?
[35:58] The Future of Synopsys

![[37] MediaTek Interview: Finbarr Moynihan and Amy Guesner](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/cGFuoTTP1os/hqdefault.jpg "[37] MediaTek Interview: Finbarr Moynihan and Amy Guesner
After the last few years in the industry, Ive noticed that weve been speaking about AI on the edge, and there has been a concerted effort to bring the best models onto our handheld devices. However, there are limitations. Memory capacity is the big one, but these models work best when they support built-in acceleration. These are AI accelerators in everything from edge to TV to automotive to smartphone to PC. Time to first token and how many tokens per second are becoming the de facto standard metrics in generative AI. However, the AI and machine learning space is more than just generative. Not only do we have large language models and stable diffusion, but we also have machine learning to do many things on many devices. Even something as simple as power management these days is optimized by machine learning. This is why you need stuff on the device to help with battery life, to help with performance.
In order to find out more, I spoke to MediaTeks Finbarr Moynihan and Amy Guesner about what it takes to enable NPUs from edge to cloud.
