The founder of TSMC, Morris Chang, and former Intel CEO Craig Barrett, both seasoned veterans in the semiconductor industry, have weighed in on Intel’s foundry business. Chang, in his straightforward style, asserted that Intel has yet to master the foundry business, while Barrett, writing recently in Fortune magazine, acknowledged that although Intel still faces challenges in chip design, particularly with the shift toward AI applications, the company is unmistakably regaining ground in manufacturing technology. According to Barrett, Intel’s revival is already well underway.
