Intel. Laser Focus & No More Meaningless Life-Time Value Foundry Deal Updates
- Laser focus, transparency and adoption of a “say do” approach to measuring success are now the order of the day at Intel
- Data Center roadmap not in good shape and if IFS can’t deliver, MJ won’t hesitate to outsource DC products to TSMC alongside existing Client products.
- Gaudi is not a mass market product, Falcon Shores won’t be great either but we will listen, learn, iterate and fail quickly. Watch out NVIDIA !
