Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger finds no reason for customers to shift from x86 to ARM

Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger interacted with the press after announcing the latest Lunar Lake x86 architecture for AI PCs at the Computex 2024 event.

On being asked if Intel will make ARM-based processors to retain the PC market share, Gelsinger noted that the x86 market share has remained high, and said, “Lunar Lake has the best CPU, best graphics, best NPU, and it has a very compelling battery life, why would you change it?”

Hinting that Intel will continue to design and make chips using x86 architecture, and minimising the possibilities of seeing Intel-branded ARM chips anytime soon, Gelsinger said,
