Almost like AMD is saving Intel from itself...

In any case, if Intel needs to diversify, open source (RISC-V) does seem better than proprietary mortal enemy (ARM).

Any Intel server comes with an ARM chip (at least one that I know of), the BMC.

And most modern AMD chips ship with ARM cores in them... https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/AMD_Platform_Security_Proces...

Competition works wonders.. having both of them (what happened to cyrix?) keeps them honest to some extent.
