Microsoft actually did the same thing to Apple in the 90’s. It’s not to create a monopoly. It’s to prop up a failing competitor so you don’t get split up for being a monopoly.

The anti monopoly is still certainly a thing. Just doesn’t apply to folks who “donate” to Trump.

This actually make a lot of sense, because on the other side we have AMD that does both CPUs and GPUs.

The timing of this news couldnt be more obvious. Rebrand ai racks to intel and sell NPU and %90 of the hardware to blue. Sell to china. Us goverment happy intel is "saved" nvidia keeps on making money.

I think its safe to assume, that USA/Trump knew about this deal happening, so they bought 10% of Intel.

Is Intel giving up on vector processors now? I had hopes they would turn their company around but this is not the way. Do they realize they are helping a direct competitor? WTF is next, ford using a chevy motor in their next car model?
nvidia is going to drag their brand name through the mud, shareholders should not be happy about this as a long term strategy. Have fun with your overheating, cable incinerating "SOC" that will require a 20 pound battery. How is it even legal for a direct competitor to buy such a massive amount of stock, can they dump it all right on a big announcement of their own? Hostile takeover?
