So, this says Loongson third gen chips still haven't been "tapped out" (they mean taped out) but are coming "in 2025", and are merely on par with 12th and 13th gen Intel. (I doubt it, though, at 3ghz.)
Then they say the fourth gen chips will be on a process competitive with 7nm nodes. Are those also coming in 2025? 2026? That's not clear, yet the headline refers to them as "new" as if they're already here. In 2026, 7nm will be pretty old news. (~7-8 years old for TSMC.)
They seem to be trying to minimize the lead Intel/AMD has on Loongson, (to drive clicks?) but the few details provided say Loongson is still significantly behind.
