Go on, young boy: Asking about your company's biggest competitor can provide valuable insights into the industry landscape, competitive threats, and potential areas for improvement or differentiation. By knowing who your biggest competitor is, you can evaluate their strengths and weaknesses, analyze their strategies, and potentially identify opportunities for growth or market share. This information can also help inform your own company's strategy, positioning, and messaging.

This Op and thread illustrate the problem. While Intel people are and culture are focused on navel gazing, the real competition spends all of their energy on building innovative products that sell like crazy.
@zcy The complexity is gone once Intel splits. It's a waste of everything to figure these things out. Who cares? BTW, Intel's ideas are never cool because anyone with a cool idea can get funding elsewhere. You end up with 3rd rate people doing "me too" by burning cash. That game is over. Splitting is just a better word than "firing".
@anr Barely related?? Good gawd, man. It’s not like we’re packaging CPUs with peanut butter. They’re so interrelated you can’t figure out where DCAI ends and NPG begins, IOT ends and NPG begins, or where DCAI ends and IOT begins.
The issue is getting lost in the complexity, thereby making software solutions and pivots to new service models unconscionable.
@xoj The company needs to break up so that each of these barely related business units can face their own competitors in their own space. I bet the leaders in each of these segment are fighting each other for the shrinking internal resources and shifting the layoff to the other business unit. The incentives are all screwed up. It can only be realigned with a break up.

The biggest competitor of any business unit within Intel is always another Intel business unit. They are eating from the same pot.
To sleep, probably to dream.
Sleep is the cousin of death
AMD, Nvidia, TSMC, Samsung, Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Facebook, Qualcomm, Broadcom……
You see the problem?
@uua, bring back the Z80!
7nm :))))
Zilog
Apple is biggest customer.
@ndp Competition? Huh. Scoreboard.
TSMC
Duh!
Intel doesn't have a focus, so it can't name a competitor, only a number of different competitors. I think it will die peerless, aka, the biggest and proudest foookup.
Competitor? Bro, Intel is a monopoly who lets others bite at the Apple (teehee) every now and again.
Hahaha
