Even if you started a few years ago, you won't get a working fab producing anything within 5 years and that is considering if it's a 5 or 7nm chip. If you want anything as advanced as tsmc 2nm chips, you're well within 10-15+ years.

I live in Taiwan and have friends who work at TSMC. They are NOT kidding around when it comes to security. No personal cellphones. No smart devices. My buddy couldn't get approved for a basic pedometer.

I'm aware you probably didn't mean it like this (or maybe did), but it kind of sounds like you're saying they're better of not doing anything at all. Who cares about long term goals ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

No, I'm saying this article is literally meaningless. Nobody knows what the hell will happen in 1 year let alone 15+ years later.

Assuming TSMC or Samsung or hell, even Intel didn't do ANY improvements or even finish the fabs they are CURRENTLY working on. Even with this rare assumption, Huawei won't effect the market. They are simply too far behind the tech to be able to make a difference.
