You've got it the wrong way around there. AMD is much more conservative.

"It’s easy to see why Intel hasn’t changed the way it defines or communicates TDP to its customers: It would make the company’s high end look vastly worse compared with AMD. A Core i9-10850K will draw up to 265W. If you want an AMD CPU with that kind of power budget you have to buy a Threadripper."

Intel's TDP is more based on the max the CPU would draw, when all the various Turbo modes are disabled. Which reflects approximately zero real-world deployments except for the very low-end parts where Intel disables the Turbo modes for product segmentation.
So AMD and Intel measure TDP differently because obviously they do.
Intel's TDP is based on the max the CPU can generate while AMD is based on what an average user would encounter.
