Moore lived long enough to see Intel financialized, and its engineering crown taken by its rivals.

Only the paranoid survive, one of his colleagues once said, and I guess Intel stopped being sufficiently paranoid.

Intel is not dead, wounded perhaps. I would still be very surprised to see them disappear.

they'll survive due to geopolitics if nothing else, the US government has no choice but to make sure they stay viable due to the potential issues in Taiwan

This, anything happening to Taiwan will shaken IT and electronics industry severely. We are ahead of "chip-covid" event in my opinion as IT wasn't enough shaken by SARS-Cov2 or Ukraine, I hope I am wrong. Intel stock price would sky rocket then.
