> It is crazy to me that a world newly craving GPU architecture for AI, and gamers being largely neglected, that Intel would abandon an established product line.

You still need to fab it somewhere. Intel's fabs have been plagued with issues for years, the AI grifters have bought up a lot of TSMCs allotments and what remains got bought up by Apple for their iOS and macOS lineups, and Samsung's fabs are busy doing Samsung SoCs.

And that unfortunately may explain why Intel yanked everything. What use is a product line that can't be sold because you can't get it produced?

Yet another item on my long list of "why I want to see the AI grift industry burn and the major participants rotting in a prison cell".
