RISC-V vs ARM AI Edge Inferenc...

The RV32I port of Palo Alto Tiny Basic appears to be fully working. Feel free to have a look at it, I have included some examples: https://codeberg.org/alrj/rvtb
I wonder if it's worth the trouble to try and adapt it to RV32E. Are there even any real microcontroller that are only RV32E? And then, do they have enough memory to run Tiny Basic?
SpacemiT K3 Pico-ITX RISC-V Chassis Kit Review – Part 2: What works, what doesn’t in Bianbu OS 4.0

Last month, I received the SpacemiT K3 Pico-ITX Chassis Kit based on the company's K3 16-core RISC-V SoC, and started the review with an unboxing, a teardown, and a first boot to Bianbu OS 4.0. Since the system features a 10Gbps Ethernet SFP+ cage, I also had to order a 10GbE SFP+ to Copper adapter, as my 10GbE networking gear is exclusively based on RJ45 ports. In this review, I'll check system information in Bianbu OS 4.0.1, run a few benchmarks, test 10GbE, GbE, and WiFi 6 networking performance, play YouTube videos at various resolutions, run AI workloads (LLM), check all/most features work as expected, and measure the power consumption of the SpacemiT K3 "Pico-ITX Chassis Kit" mini PC. Bianbu OS 4.0 System Information Before running anything, I updated the system: 594 packages were updated. For reference, the update also involved updating the EC (Embedded Controller) firmware: Let's double-check the
Pine64 Pinevoice – A $50 RISC-V Smart Speaker for Home Assistant based on Bouffalo Lab BL606P MCU

After over two years in the making, Pine64 has now launched the PineVoice (previously PineVox) smart speaker based on the Bouffalo Lab BL606P RISC-V wireless microcontroller with WiFi, Bluetooth, and Zigbee radio interfaces. The device also features two microphones, a speaker, a USB 2.0 OTG port, volume buttons, a mute button with LED, a start/stop button, and four RGB LEDs. The PineVoice smart speaker is mainly designed to work with Home Assistant. PineVoice specifications: SoC - Bouffalo Lab BL606P CPU D0 core - T-Head C906 64-bit RISC-V (RV64IMAFCV) CPU @ 480 MHz M0 core - T-Head E907 32-bit RISC-V (RV32IMAFCP) CPU @ 320 MHz Memory - 544KB RAM (788KB SRAM listed on the Pine64 store), 16MB embedded PSRAM Storage - 128KB ROM, 4KB eFuse Wireless 2.4 GHz 802.11 b/g/n 1T1R WiFi 4 Bluetooth 5.x Dual-mode (Classis + BLE) 802.15.4 radio (Zigbee) Storage - 128Mbit (16MB) SPI NOR flash Audio 2x
PineVoice smart speaker is now available for $50 (Home Assistant speaker with RISC-V processor and mic kill switch)

More than two years after introducing a hacker-friendly smart speaker, Pine64 is now taking orders for its answer to the Amazon Echo, Google Home, and Apple HomePod line of devices.
The PineVoice* smart speaker has a lot of the features you’d expect from mainstream models. But it’s powered by a RISC-V processor and designed to work with the open source Home Assistant platform rather than […]

An example of this is POSIX, the US Gov required POSIX on all operating systems they used.
If the EU could phase this in, the rest of the world would be in a better place. Their first focus, Nvidia :)
