It’s baffling how fast they fell, since they had a monopoly for ~20 years.

They had untouchable market dominance from the mid 80's through the mid 2010's, so probably closer to 30 years.

AMD and Apple caught up on consumer PC processors, as the consumer PC market as a whole kinda started to fall behind tablets and phones as the preferred method of computing. Even in the data center, the importance of the CPU has lost ground to GPU and AI chips in the past 5 years, too. We'll see how Intel protects its current position in the data center.
