Intel bets on a cheaper AI inference GPU to shake up data-center chips this year

Intel plans to ship its Crescent Island AI data-centre GPU by year-end to accelerate inference, using cheaper LPDDR5 memory and air cooling to cut cost vs Nvidia/AMD. Led by Kevork Kechichian, it marks Intel’s first major AI infrastructure push under CEO Lip-Bu Tan, with limited initial shipments after an 18-month development. The chip targets cheaper memory and cooling, aims to compete on price and power, and Intel is pursuing in-house foundry plans with potential China sales under export controls as it rebuilds its AI hardware business.

Shareholder sues over 10% US government stake cited as shield against Trump pressure

A shareholder-led Delaware Court of Chancery suit claims Intel’s CEO Lip-Bu Tan and the board granted the US government a 10% stake in Intel—worth about $11 billion—without meaningful consideration, allegedly to protect executives from extortion-like threats and social-media attacks by Donald Trump. The deal, funded by converting Biden-era CHIPS Act grants, followed Trump’s criticisms and a White House visit, and the complaint also targets Skadden for advising both Intel and the government; it seeks to unwind the arrangement. Intel declined to comment, and the stock has risen since the deal was struck as the company pursues its foundry ambitions.
