Not even remotely close. Really, where do you get some notion of AMD having "double" the performance of Intel? Pass the dutch, bro.

Please keep in mind that the process names have become meaningless marketing terms. Intel is currently a bit behind due to their 10nm fiasco, but it is entirely possible that Intel's 7nm will beat TSMC 3nm process. AMD can have 10-15% advantage for the next couple years, but 2x-3x? That's never gonna happen.
Unless Intel manufactures on TSMC's line, AMD will have a clear, near double to triple performance advantage for the next 2 generations. You're going to see Intel become the value brand for awhile and they're trying to avoid that because they are used to a cash cow.
