New Intel CEO announced

Intel named Lip-Bu Tan as its next chief executive officer, entrusting a former board member and semiconductor veteran with one of the toughest jobs in the chip industry.

Tan, 65, will assume the role on March 18, the company said in a statement Wednesday. He will rejoin the board as well after stepping down in August 2024.
 
What processor does he run on?
 
This man has an impressive resumé. I am curious why TechCentral called him an underdog?

Intel will be okay in the 2-3 years. Too many capacity issues, with uncertainty, and I can't see this streak continuing. Lip-Bu Tan is a solid choice to continue the Intel vision.
 
It is always so strange. In the tech world, when a company's ego grows too big, strange things start to happen. There is almost a pattern to this. Intel will turn around.
 
The man started with a strong launchpad.


Initial Intel 18A Node Wafer Run Lands in Arizona Site, High-Volume Manufacturing Could Start Earlier Than Expected​


Intel's 18A node, often referred to as Intel's silver lining, has just produced tangible result. In a LinkedIn post of Intel's engineering manager Pankaj Marria, we learn that Intel's 18A node is now being produced in initial wafer lots for testing and evaluation by Intel's customers. This means that Intel's 18A node PDK is officially in version 1.0, and customers are already using that PDK for testing of custom chips. "The Eagle has landed," noted the post, referring to the node development as a major milestone for a node developed and made in US. There were even posters with the same slogans being brought up, meaning that possible customers are also happy with inital test runs. With high-volume manufacturing slated for second half of 2025, we could even see 18A HVM going before initial targets.

Intel has a good tide...
