I don't particularly like Intel, but that is Hardly a fair comparison.

TSMC 48K employees, and $13 - $15B R&D.

And even that is excluding all the ecosystem and tooling companies around TSMC. Compared to Intel which does it all by themselves. Not to mention Intel does way more than just CPU, GPU, also Memory, Network, Mobile, 5G, WiFi, FPGA, Storage Controller etc.

Intel sold off the 5G/Modem business to Apple recently:
