Threatening to build fabs is not addressed at you but designed to trigger idiot politicians with influence to unlock CHIPS money. The politicians do not know or care if building fabs is possible.

US is already throwing CHIPS dollars at Intel whose latest chips are made by...TSMC https://www.pcworld.com/article/2355435/intels-lunar-lake-is-actually-made-at-tsmc.html https://www.pcworld.com/article/2355435/intels-lunar-lake-is...

  1) the CHIPS money Intel received is going to the Foundry, not the products group; 2) that's not Intel's latest chips, these are: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/details/processors/xeon/xeon6-product-brief.html https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/details/pro... https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/details/processors/ai-accelerators/gaudi3.html https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/details/pro... One fully made by Intel Foundry, the other with at least some considerable TSMC parts (which isn't unexpected for the market segment it's in and the fact it was allegedly designed by Habana before it was bought out).

    Right from Wiki my friend Lunar Lake is the codename for Core Ultra Series 2 mobile processors designed by Intel, released on September 24, 2024. Manufactured by: TSMC https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lunar_Lake https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lunar_Lake It's September 27 round abouts here so I'm not sure it gets more recent than that.

      1) Funny how you didn't address my first point which completely disproves your lie about Intel sending CHIPS money to TSMC. 2) It does get more recent than that: Granite Rapids (Xeon 6 built fully on Intel processes) and Gaudi 3 (TSMC built) were announced on the 24th and will be released later this year. Maybe you shouldn't get so sassy when discussing things you know very little about.

        > ...and will be released later this year You answered your own question; it's not a product on the market and therefore not released yet. > ...which completely disproves your lie about Intel sending CHIPS money to TSMC I mean, this is kinda silly right? If I get a $48,000 a year housing stipend that I can only spend on housing, that means I have $48,000 more to spend elsewhere. Also, you're arguing a strawman here. What I wrote: > US is already throwing CHIPS dollars at Intel Which they are.
