The actual chips are farmed out to TSMC, I don't believe they've made any in house so I'm guessing maybe they've decided that they're going to do that sometimes now? But then, even some of their CPUs are made by TSMC so I could be on a very wrong path.

    TSMC is how they stay competitive; that’s what everyone else uses

    Intel is still catching up with 18A

    The 18A production node itself is designed to prove that Intel can not only create a compelling CPU architecture but also manufacture it internally on a technology node competitive with TSMC's best offerings.

    You are a bit out of date. I cant say what I know, but tsmc is just one player now. Semiconductor industry is about to make some jumps.
