This is great news. Letting China/Taiwan be the one stop shop for everything is going to be a big mistake in the next decade or two, it also reflects badly on the USA that we are completely dependent on a foreign power as much as we are. The current market has show that it won't price in externalities such as future wars (and cold wars) and only government pushes here and there will help it along. Intel is seeing the potential for that I believe, given the shortages and such. They certainly have the expertise to make these other types of chips that the US market has all but given up on. I think the big thing is we need to at least have the equivalent capability to what we are getting from Taiwan because it has become clear that China is not going to allow them to be independent for much longer, particularly under Xi.
