Lol. Maybe Intel doesn't share its builders.

They didn't build the fab yet, but already claim that 18A will be production ready in a year.

If 18A is anywhere better than TSMCs 3nm, I don't believe it'll be ready anytime earlier than in 3 years.

Just look at their current products. Intel currently uses Intel 7 fab for their 13th gen CPUs, which is supposedly a match for TSMCs 7nm introduced in 2016 (with volume production in 2018)!

Intel process node is 5 years behind TSMC, yet they claim to not only match, but already surpass them.
