Intel admits over-ambition led to delays in 10nm chip production but feels Moore's Law is not dead yet

[Redaktion]

Intel CEO Bob Swan admitted that the company was over-ambitious in its quest to have more transistor density in 10nm than Moore's Law actually postulates. This led to delays in 10nm production and ultimately, the company lagged behind competitors such as AMD and NVIDIA who have now moved on to newer fabrication processes by outsourcing chip production.

Or maybe Moore's law has always been just a marketing tool for planned obsolescence, not necessary when you can inflate prices in absence of competition or when planned obsolescence is provided courtesy of unpatched firmware vulnerabilities. Right Intel?
