Intel could make NVIDIA GPUs (in case of emergency)
Apparently NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang has been talking with Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger to discuss the possibility that the team blue fabricate green GPUs "in case of emergency".
“I'm not saying this just to generate extra Hype… people should understand that NVIDIA and Intel are not going to turn around and let TSMC combine with AMD to crush everyone; or for TSMC to combine with Apple to do the same, ” said Tom.
“If TSMC starts to dominate too much, NVIDIA will see what it can do to team up with Intel, and vice versa. It is not just AMD or TSMC, it is also Apple - these companies are preparing for great wars with these architectures, and they find allies if one of them becomes too powerful, "he said.
TSMC will continue to dominate the industry for years to come, as it will make a significant leap with its 5nm with Apple as its largest customer. The Cupertino giant has reportedly already secured 50% of TSMC's 5nm production capacity by 2021, aiming to use these advanced chips in its upcoming iPhone, iPad and Mac.
NVIDIA was forced to use the node 8Nm of Samsung for their GPUs Ampere, while TSMC became increasingly closer to other manufacturers such as AMD (including Microsoft and Sony, among others), Apple, Qualcomm, etc. . So NVIDIA would be looking to hit the table so as not to be left behind. However, NVIDIA would catch up on this with the arrival of Samsung's 5nm , which should be used in NVIDIA's upcoming "Ampere Next" GPUs expected in 2022.

That would seem kind of odd, Intel already has Raja Koduri, who left AMD to join Intel to help make GPU.

There needs to be a cap set on yearly fabrication capacity orders that prevents apple starving the semiconductor industry.

Well, if this isn't one, I don't know. Floods, water shortages, massive shipping lane issues etc etc. Shall we wait until a meteor hits the earth and kills 90% of the population, demand would have decreased significantly though. lol

If this is true then definitely they had some agreement of exchange of technology information too to help the blue teams upcoming GPU.
