With David De Rosier

This talk explores the significance of RISC-V in today's hardware landscape, highlighting its open-source framework that enables innovation and customisation compared to ARM and Intel. As we transition from general-purpose CPUs to custom SoC solutions, the need for domain-specific optimizations, particularly in AI, increases. This shift emphasises the importance of low-level programming, with Rust emerging as an ideal language for bare-metal development on RISC-V.

We will discuss concepts such as no-std and no-os programming, as well as Rust's interoperability with assembly. Participants will learn about the trade-offs of abstractions and how to navigate unsafe code effectively. We will also outline opportunities for getting involved in the RISC-V ecosystem, from contributing to Linux and LLVM to building your computer. Join us to discover how this DIY revolution is transforming the future of computing.
