Wonder if this has anything to do with Jim Keller also leaving about a month ago? https://www.anandtech.com/show/15846/jim-keller-resigns-from-intel-effective-

  Thinking of the same thing. Really wonder what sort of politics and power play is happening behind the scene. I thought Jim Keller lost when he was obviously pushing for using TSMC.

  This YT video covers this issue. Lot of politics and power struggles in Intel. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1nsX9nUFIBc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1nsX9nUFIBc

  To be fair, Keller never stays anywhere long

    Two years is his shortest tenure, not enough time to make a massive difference to a company as big as Intel.

      He carries enough weight in this industry to have no problem changing the orbit of even a company the size of Intel. It depends how hard the managers are going to try and pull it back in the old direction.

    But he's almost never left without making an impact where he worked at, no matter how short of a sting: DEC (21164/21264) -> AMD (K7/K8) -> SiByte/Broadcom -> P.A. Semi (bought by Apple, A4/A5) -> AMD (Ryzen) -> Tesla (not sure about his impact) -> Intel (no visible impact so far). Also, from those only his first stint at AMD can be considered "not staying long", most of the other positions were held for some years.

  So far everything points to him really taking time off to take care of family.
