Nvidia, Intel and AMD: their business now is circular money with AI and not PC gaming industry anymore.

Er, and you think ARM is somehow not involved?

What does AI have to do with this? It's a Qualcomm chip, not made by any of those companies.

That's their point.

I don't see how ARM, especially when Qualcomm is the only realistic option, is the solution here. Also, basic x86-64 patents have lapsed last year and newer extensions will lapse step by step. ARM64 is still so new, its initial patents will only lapse in 10 years.
