Well, that settles it. I guess Intel really is doomed.

Nationalization? Why do we have to buy this shitty company?

Its a fucking chip maker. They had some major issues with raptor lake. Sucks to suck?

Sure. But its not like they were always on top. Line goes up/ line goes down. Shit happens. It doesn't warrant a bailout whatsoever. I mean fuck we didn't bail out AMD when they were a bad joke.

A way smarter move would be to give that money to AMD to build a drop-in/ open source CUDA replacement.

Intel had issues with 14nm, extremely massive issues with 10nm/Intel 7 and then issues with Intel 4, Intel 3, 20A and 18A.

There's only Intel, Samsung and TSMC left for leading-edge fabrication. Samsung and Intel are both struggling, SMIC might catch up at some point, but China has to replicate the whole supply chain and tech domestically due to sanctions. There's a real chance we end up with a TSMC monopoly and that's the critical issue.

The design side seems to fare better, but I'd argue there's more competition there anyways, so Intel isn't as critical in this regard.
