But they would build them with that money. That's what it's for.
No, they wouldn't. That wouldn't even build them one fab, let alone summon all of the talent and supply chain out of thin air.
Lol? No, wtf
Also 8bn is like 1/3 of modern fab
I’m not convinced either of them would even want to.
AMD used to have fabs - they spun them off a long time ago as GlobalFoundries. They’re no longer competitive with TSMC, Samsung, or even Intel for modern nodes.
