Comment on Intel’s Troubles Complicate U.S. Chip Independence
TheGrandNagus@lemmy.world 2 months agoIntel had Jim Keller, and then Jim Keller left prematurely because of political infighting within Intel.
He could barely get anything done and was blocked all the time, because people thought his longer term goal was to become Intel’s next CEO.
His Royal Core project, which looks promising, has been cancelled by Pat Gelsinger.
Intel had a goose that laid golden eggs, killed it, then threw all the eggs they had into a volcano.

Intel had such a huge competitive lead during AMDs Bulldozer debacle. I assumed they were still making internal advancements and just sitting on them since there wasn’t any need to push the envelope while they had basically no competition.
Now I’m wondering if they did the typical US corporation thing of laying off their actual talent and using their obscene profits from this period for bonuses for their corporate officers.
