Intel designs and manufactures semiconductor chips, with a focus on microprocessors for personal computers, servers, and other devices. Its core product is the CPU on a single silicon chip, which executes instructions, handles arithmetic and logic operations, and coordinates the work of other computer components. Intel originated in memory chips but shifted decisively to microprocessors in the 1980s, becoming a central supplier for the PC era after the IBM partnership and its famous x86 processor line. This shift, large-scale manufacturing, and close ties with computer makers set Intel apart from competitors who remained focused on memory or other components. The company aims to power computing by delivering high-performance, energy-efficient silicon solutions that drive a wide range of computing devices and applications.

Intel refreshes non-Ultra Core CPUs with new Wildcat Lake silicon for first time

Intel has launched its Core Series 3 processors, marking the first time in years that non-Ultra Core CPUs feature genuinely new silicon. Codenamed Wildcat Lake, these chips represent a departure from previous non-Ultra models, which relied on the outdated Raptor Lake architecture from 2023's 13th-generation Core family. The new processors use two silicon tiles: a compute tile with up to two Cougar Cove P-cores, four Darkmont E-cores, and Xe3 integrated graphics, plus a platform controller tile. Built on Intel's 18A manufacturing process, they support up to 48GB LPDDR5X-7467 memory and operate at 15W base power. However, the chips' 17 TOPS NPU falls short of Microsoft's 40 TOPS requirement for Copilot+ PC features. Intel claims over 70 designs from partners will launch in coming months.

Intel appoints Aparna Bawa as Chief Legal & People Officer to support AI and foundry transformation

Intel has appointed Aparna Bawa as Executive Vice President and Chief Legal & People Officer, overseeing global legal, ethics, compliance, people and culture functions. She will report directly to CEO Lip-Bu Tan. Bawa joins from Zoom during a period of significant transformation at Intel. The company's shares have risen 28.3% over the past week and 42.4% over the past month, trading at $65.17. The combined role places legal risk management, culture and talent decisions under single leadership as Intel reshapes itself around AI, foundry services and major cloud and automotive clients. With recent agreements involving Google, SambaNova and the Terafab project with Tesla, SpaceX and xAI, Intel faces increasingly complex contracts and regulatory exposure. The appointment signals how the company is organising to support long-term execution during operational transformation.
