What was said

"Right now, the agentic AI and inference CPU become highly in demand. And so versus 1 to 8 in the training CPU to GPU, now I can see 1 to 4, maybe 1 to 1. Wow. And I'm delighted CPU become important."

Tan forecasted a dramatic shift in the AI compute landscape, predicting that CPU demand will reach parity with GPUs as agentic AI and inference workloads grow. This contradicts the current GPU-dominated narrative and suggests Intel's CPU business has significantly more growth potential than markets anticipate. He cited AI developers reporting CPUs outperform for reinforcement learning and agent orchestration.
