Comment on Intel’s Troubles Complicate U.S. Chip Independence

They’ve had fab problems for years, in that it cost them a ton on money and much longer than desired to shrink nodes, so they’ve fallen from a leader in fab production to being behind.

Not to mention there’s not much money to be made from fabs, unless your tsmc.

AMD, Qualcomm, Nvidia, Google, Apple, are all huge tech companies that design their own cutting edge chips, and only Samsung is another company that both designs and produces chips.

And this is why I don’t understand why Nvidia is valued so highly on the stock market. It’s obvious that other players have chips for Ai as well, and it’s also obvious that the benefits from Ai are just shallow stuff like helping the consumer do things with their voice instead of clicking buttons.

  Don’t hold your breath waiting for anything about the stock market to make sense.

  Not obvious to the billionaires and hedge funds who own most of the stock market.
  
  Never forget that wealth and power doesn’t automatically equal intelligence and competence…

Just checking: do you mean fabrication problems or FABULOUS problems? 😛
