Rant:

There are too many companies out there that started with a good product/service - and then bureaucrats took over. Smart companies minimize layers of management, and manager headcount. Bad companies don't - and they eventually are unable to grow/innovate. A shockingly high percentage of corporate America is parasitic management.

Intel happens to be in an industry that moves so fast that this doesn't work for long, relatively.

Either way, Intel needs to get their new fabs sorted out and improve their products. There will be money to be made if Intel can get back the energy efficiency crown. The GPU division are starting to actually enter the lower market segment, but drivers leave a lot to be desired. Reducing work force even more just tells me they have no clue how to fix these issues and are grasping hard.

It's not just drivers. I'd line up to buy a a couple 24GB B580s to play around with local AI, but they're only going to be available in workstation systems. When it gets to the point where you're losing, but still won't sell people things they want, I think it's a good indicator that management is just plain dumb.
