Quite possibly, but if this happens, it'll be Intel's fault. Expecting their 500% margin on x86 to last was complete lunacy. They've had 40 years. Anything they manage to invent on the architecture side will not maintain their margin in a world where ARM is good enough. That margin is never coming back.
They need to get their act together, swallow their pride, and learn how to become a foundry like every other state-of-the-art fab on the planet.
