Intel says it’s going to lean on Google’s Gemini to help automate and accelerate silicon development
Intel Corp. said today it’s expanding its long-running partnership with Google Cloud into the agentic artificial intelligence realm.
By deploying the Gemini Enterprise platform across its global workforce, the chipmaker says it will be able to accelerate workflows across its corporate, engineering, supply chain and marketing operations. It’s also going to use Google’s autonomous agents to accelerate its chip design lifecycles and boost innovation companywide.
Intel Vice President and Chief Information Officer Cindy Stoddard said the company is embarking on an ambitious “AI-powered transformation” that aims to help every one of its employees move with greater speed and agility and work more efficiently. Gemini Enterprise will be the key enabler of those efforts. “Our work with Google Cloud allows us to provide our employees with a central hub to build and deploy agents through Gemini Enterprise and scale silicon development with elastic cloud infrastructure,” she said.
The partnership will see Intel move beyond isolated AI pilot projects for the first time and make dedicated agentic coding assistance and engineering automation capabilities available to its entire organization. The plan is to use Gemini’s advanced reasoning skills to streamline development pipelines and automate many of the complex, multistep workflows currently performed manually with customized line-of-business agents trained on Intel’s unique business processes.
