Now, there would still be a metric fuck ton of money involved. Chip fabs aren’t cheap, engineers aren’t cheap and project management isn’t cheap.
The open architecture means there is already a framework and R&D costs will also be limited. And yeah, no licensing fees like we already covered.
Without diving deep into RISC V, just because there is an open architecture doesn’t mean that there are machines capable of manufacturing whatever specs are required. Licensing fees for machining could be pure insanity.
Still, a few million (or billion?) is normal when it comes to making this stuff.
