Why do you think the market inevitably becomes a monopoly?
In the last 20 years we had generations when AMD CPUs were better (Athlon XP, Athlon 64, Zen 2, Zen 3) and generations when Intel CPUs were better (Core 2 Duo, Sandy Bridge, Haswell, Skylake).
That competition pushed performance to the awesome levels we have now, when high-end desktop CPUs exceed 1 TFlops FP32. As a consumer, I find the trend awesome and I hope it continues in the future.
