Semiconductor industry proposes new ‘Chipmaker’s Visa’ for H1B program — program would address extreme talent shortages in chipmaking industry::American semiconductor industry needs tens of thousands of foreign workers, so the government has to alter H1-B visa program, U.S. chipmakers believe.
To be fair, Intel was ahead of TSMC in manufacturing processes size for a while there but they were measuring it differently from them. Hence the whole process size rebranding that unfortunately looked really shady without context. Now as far as throughput and yield… that’s going to take some work. Not sure what their yield has been as of late but I’m not convinced it’s nearly as competitive.
