I think Intel is trying to grow drones (an emerging market) and cloud departments.
And in general, the end of process size reduction doesn't mean the end of innovation in chip building and design. There are limits on node sizes, as there are limits on heat dissipation, but once you have high enough yield, there are few limits onto how many circuits you put onto a chip, as long as most of the circuits are powered off. Ultimately, the more stuff special purpose circuits compute instead of the general purpose one, the better for power consumption.
