Yes... or at least it could be.
Intel must have been seeing this coming for quite a while. Even to a casual viewer from the outside it's been pretty clear for years.
I wonder what their response has been and if it has a chance of succeeding.
I am assuming we haven't seen their response yet. If we have, then they are in a bad place.
If you want to be an optimist in Intel's favor, perhaps recent chip delays and stagnation is due to them pulling resources away from incremental improvements to dead-end architectures and putting them on to The Next Big Thing in CPUs, which we'll all find out about soon... ha, ha.
