Intel’s factories are literally 2 hours away from the TSMC facility. There are several other chip makers near to Intel, and staff tends to shift around between these, and I believe that will continue. I do not know what TSMC is doing for a talent pool, though I also heard they are not staffing the Arizona facility with high end engineering. That will stay in Taiwan, and this plant will be focused on production.

As much as I dislike how Intel works sometimes, this market does not need fewer competitors.

I agree but that doesn’t change the fact that intel is collapsing. I don’t think we need to artificially prop up failing companies either, if they are needed and they fail then nationalize their assets and let a closely monitored government entity run the fabs
