Intel’s upbeat revenue projections on Thursday masked a sore point for the embattled company: chips touted for artificial intelligence have not lived up to sales expectations. The chipmaker scrapped its recent forecast that in 2024 it would sell more than $500 million worth of Gaudi accelerator chips, so called because they speed up the performance of AI applications. In a call with analysts, CEO Pat Gelsinger attributed their slower uptake to software related to Gaudi and a recent transition from the second to third generation of the chip.
