The chipmaker just announced it’s downsizing its workforce by over 15 percent as part of a new $10 billion cost savings plan for 2025, which will mean a headcount reduction of greater than 15,000 roles, Intel tells The Verge. The company currently employs over 125,000 workers, so layoffs could be as many as 19,000 people.

Intel will reduce its R&D and marketing spend by billions each year through 2026; it will reduce capital expenditures by more than 20 percent this year; it will restructure to “stop non-essential work,” and it’ll review “all active projects and equipment” to make sure it’s not spending too much.

    Looks like Intel will be dead by 2030.

    They can’t beat AMD in CPUs and they can’t beat NVidia at AI, and definitely can’t best either at graphics.

      The US government will never let Intel die, it’s too strategic of a company for the them.
