@cm0002 You know about one cookie / two cookie children, those who are willing to delay gratification for a larger long term reward? Intel has always been a two cookie company, their investment in high numerical aperture extreme ultra violate fabs being a case in point. This is going to make them competitive with ASML and domestically to boot which means if China does take over Taiwan they'll be in an extra good place, not that I believe this is likely. But I believe this investment will serve them well in the long term even if it means some short term pain.
Intel sat on 4 cores with exceptionally high power usage for a decade while everyone was screaming for more. This resulted in Apple starting up their own damn chip business, and AMD smashing through the wall with 6, 8, 12, and 16-core chips available to the masses; and core counts requiring a third damn digit if you go server. Furthermore, Intel's process node is woefully behind TSMC's.
Intel sat on their laurels and are getting shat on from all angles now.
I remember an ad Intel made about how AMD was "gluing their chips together", being the chiplet design. In the end ram speeds continued to improve and thus the bottlenecks were alleviated, and now every design is the same.
16? You mean 96?
I don't follow, what are they investing in...?
The article is just about an employee leaving the company... Thats not really an investment?
Am I missing something?
@CrisColor Everybody makes it out like Intel is doomed. It will do fine.
is one of those cookies stock buybacks?
