Makes sense, with ARM and x86 being controlled by western corporations.
Nice. For people that don’t understand this: Basically, ARM is also a RISC (Reduced instruction set computer) but is proprietary, while risc-v is open source. risc-v is still in kind of a development stage though, while ARM is used by almost all phones, tablets, chromebooks, single board computers (raspberrypi etc), apple M1,2,3 computers and many more.
Does this mean it’s easy to port from ARM to RISC-V?
Not really, you still need to have a lot of tooling for compilers, hardware, etc. But it is an area where China has an opportunity to both eliminate dependence on proprietary foreign technology, and develop a technology that nobody else has a real edge in
