Intel unveiled new artificial intelligence (AI) processors for data centers on Tuesday, June 4.

As it strives to dominate the growing business, competitors Nvidia and AMD have also introduced new AI processors in the last few days, coinciding with the announcement.

Intel Unveils Xeon 6 Processors

Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger introduced the Xeon 6 processor during the Computex tech convention in Taiwan, according to CNBC. He said it would be more efficient and provide higher performance for high-intensity data center tasks than its predecessor.

Intel also revealed that its Gaudi 2 and Gaudi 3 AI accelerators are more affordable than competing processors.

In his speech, Gelsinger acknowledged that customers are looking for solutions with open software and hardware, a shorter time to market, and a much reduced total cost of ownership.

To further expand the "AI PC category," Intel has also unveiled the architectural specifications of its next Lunar Lake chips. Set to be released in the third quarter, Lunar Lake processors will compete with AI chips from Nvidia and AMD designed for PCs.
