Cisco Wants to Make AI Chips, Too -- Are Broadcom and Marvell in Trouble?
Yes, even Cisco designs chips, and it wants in on the AI race. It's been a transformational year for old networking technology giant Cisco Systems (CSCO 0.86%). An investor favorite of the 1990s and early 2000s, the internet and networking infrastructure provider enjoyed a resurgence as of late from its bets on the cloud and recurring revenue services, much like its old dot-com-era tech titan peer Oracle. For its latest trick, Cisco says it has a new family of semiconductors, the G200 and G202, used for AI applications.
