Wasn't quite as strong a match for "G8", but G[n] does show up in a lot of product descriptions to indicate what generation of the product is involved.
LG also put out a phone named the G8 Thinq in 2019.
I would generally agree with the speaker that it's hard not to collide when using a 2 character name. The "for a CPU architecture" narrows the collision space substantially, which does affect the full accuracy of the statement. But the spirit of "2 char IDs are collision prone" is true.
Oh, wow...never heard of the E8 or Andes, but I guess RISC-V startups are thick on the ground these days. And I can't imagine searching for G8 and not getting carpet bombed with hits for HP servers. But the fundamental question is still "why would you even want a 2 character ID in a world where searching for it (even without the massive historical name collision with F8) will make it fruitless to search for".
Funnily enough, I did a quick search and immediately found an E8 processor - https://www.andestech.com/en/products-solutions/andescore-pr...
