Well I guess AMD is starting to fab at TSMC so this is not a big as deal as it sounds (although in $$ terms it certainly is).

Their IO chiplets are still produced by GloFo, who has been carving out a niche in IO. It's a good strategy for GloFo, as driving a signal for IO can safely stay on older process nodes, it doesn't scale as well as compute or memory with transistor density.
