What happens when you force 99/100 developers to write unit tests based on useless monster wrappers, mock classes around mock classes around mock classes around... ?
What happens when you force 99/100 designers and architects to sleep by reading biblical and futile tech specs and requirements?
Intel is sinking just as few many other fat realities.
This is what happens when the management thinks that control is the best practice.
Live long Test Driven Development, TDD is dead.
Creation and genius is a spark in between the chaos.

This is same Guy that Designed Zen to the best of my understanding. Guy is very talented at what he does which means he can do Whatever the Hell he wants and when he wants, I like that attitude he brings iam the same way but in diffrent ocupations obviously.

he didn't design zen, he led the retraining and retooling of the engineers

One man seldom makes a huge difference, regardless of the lopsided amount of publicity given him. Intel has tens of thousands of employees. I do wonder why his tenure at Intel was so short--but I doubt it means much. Intel will sink or swim on its products--it's as simple as that (and so will AMD.)

If he were really making a huge difference he would never have left. It takes several years to build up a good team, build up momentum and only then do you go on a roll making amazing products. Once you have that you aren't going to let it go as you are now the A team changing the world. If he keeps doing 2 years and is off sounds like the A team never happened so he's off to have another go somewhere else.
