. What a steal. But now his time at Intel is coming to a close, as he announces he's parting ways with the company to set up is own AI software start-up.is leaving his role as executive vice president at Intel, where he was taking care of the company's growing graphics division, and where he also served as a general manager. He was also Intel's chief architect for a time, which just goes to show how much stock Intel put in Koduri's technical know-how.
Thank you @RajaXg for your many contributions to Intel tech & architecture-especially w/high-performance graphics that helped bring 3 new product lines to market in ‘22. Wishing you success as you create a new software co. around generative AI for gaming, media & entertainment.That start-up sure sounds like it could be of some interest to us PC gaming lot, with its focus on generative AI for gaming, among other things.
On Intel's side of things, I do wonder what sort of impact we'll see from Koduri's departure. It's unlikely we'll see much impact to coming generations of Intel's gaming graphics cards, nor much else in the short-term, as these senior engineering figures tend to be working on projects that are so far out of the public eye it's not easy to know exactly what pies they had their fingers in and when. But this will surely shake-up the structure of the org.
Thank you Pat and @intel for many cherished memories and incredible learning over the past 5 years. Will be embarking on a new chapter in my life, doing a software startup as noted below. Will have more to share in coming weeks. https://t.co/8DcnNdso3rKoduri's departure also aligns with another major shake-up at Intel. Dr. Randhir Thakur will be leaving the company after previously heading up Intel's manufacturing arm, withIntel's Foundry Services.
