LUNA LOWBATT: Revenue was 16.5 billion dollars, up 21 percent. Earnings per share, 52 cents. I'm at four percent, but I'm awake for this. ▶
KAI: Huge numbers out of the data center, folks. The data center and AI group made 7.3 billion dollars, up 78 percent. Huge. ▶
KAI: This is file footage of server racks. The CFO called it Intel's strongest data center revenue growth in 15 years. Segment margin was 41.5 percent. ▶
