Jim Keller

Person Executive

The industry's legendary chip architect — now open-sourcing the stack at Tenstorrent.

You're looking at a person record: who they are and the companies, models and ideas they're connected to.

Keller's fingerprints are on DEC Alpha, AMD's K8 and Zen, Apple's A-series and Tesla's FSD chip. At Tenstorrent he bets that RISC-V, open software and licensable AI IP can loosen the industry's proprietary chokepoints.
