Jack FarleyHOST
No, no.
Stacy RasgonGUEST
And the CEO, Lip-Bu Tan, I actually like a, a, a lot.
Stacy RasgonGUEST
I think Pat Gelsinger, who he replaced, Pat, there was nothing wrong with Pat's strategy, but I think Pat's execution and communication of that strategy was, was horrendous.
Stacy RasgonGUEST
Like he came in and it was like everything's perfect and everything's fixed, and he got his ass handed to him, right? He, I mean, I don't know who comes into a turnaround and acts like Pollyanna, so at least, at least Lip-Bu's like realistic.
Stacy RasgonGUEST
You know, he's getting the cost structure into place.
Stacy RasgonGUEST
Pat hired 21,000 people, then he had to fire them all.
Stacy RasgonGUEST
Right, so Lip-Bu got the cost structure in place and, you know, Lip-Bu also, he's a legend in the industry.
Stacy RasgonGUEST
He knows everyone in the industry.
Ed LudlowHOST
Elon Musk setting the record straight on his chip-making ambitions, saying there should be, quote, "zero doubt about who's in charge of that initiative." Earlier this week, Musk confirmed discussions with TSMC over his planned Terafab in Texas, which raised questions about Intel's role and if they'd be displaced.
Ed LudlowHOST
Now, Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan, speaking overnight in Tokyo, says his company is still there as a technology partner, while Musk is saying TSMC won't be running that fab.
Ed LudlowHOST
Bloomberg's Global Tech Editor Peter Elstrom's [laughs] with us.
Ed LudlowHOST
Uh, the twists and turns, uh, try and summarize where we've landed.
Peter ElstromCORRESPONDENT
They began working together, but then as you mentioned, there was this report that TSMC was somehow involved.
Peter ElstromCORRESPONDENT
In fact, Musk confirmed that there were talks at that point, without going into any kind of detail.
Peter ElstromCORRESPONDENT
So, as you mentioned, we talked with Lip-Bu Tan, the CEO of Intel overnight in Tokyo.
Peter ElstromCORRESPONDENT
He confirmed they're still working with Musk and Terafab at this point.
speaker_4HOST
Pushing back against doubts over the company's role in the Terafab chip-making project.
speaker_4HOST
I- Intel CEO, Lip-Bu Tan, telling Bloomberg, this was yesterday, uh, at an event in Tokyo, that the companies involved in Terafab will continue.
speaker_4HOST
Uh, meantime, on his X account, Elon Musk responded to a post speculating that TSMC would play a larger role in this chip plant.
speaker_4HOST
"No," he said, "We will build and run the fab.
Akash PasrichaHOST
Doesn't make a ton of sense, and I, I, I mean, on the Intel side of things, do you think there's still a role here that Intel will play? Like, what's, what's your read on this?
Matt BrysonGUEST
Y- yeah, y- you had, you had Lip-Bu Tan come out and say that Intel is still involved.
Matt BrysonGUEST
Um, Intel a- always seemed to be the, the likely partner, right? I- in part because, um, y- you've got the, the investment from the U.S., um, you have Intel who is, is trying to rebuild their, their fab shops, right? They've, they've, they've been behind for, for forever a- and so what we had originally i- is what we have now a- and that's what makes the most sense.
Matt BrysonGUEST
But it still leaves you wondering, you know, what, what exactly was the thought process around mentioning TSM on Friday.
Akash PasrichaHOST
But, and, and sorry, i- i- uh, Lip-Bu came out and said that he said this today or recently? Did he, did he reaffirm this or, or w- when was this?
Matt BrysonGUEST
Yeah, no, he reaffirmed it.
Matt BrysonGUEST
There was a Bloomberg article, uh-
Peter DiamandisHOST
[laughs]
Salim IsmailPANELIST
I'm speaking alongside the Prime Minister of Singapore, and Lip-Bu Tan from Intel will be there.
Peter DiamandisHOST
Awesome.
Peter DiamandisHOST
Re-invite him onto the pod.
Alex CoffeyHOST
Yeah.
Alex CoffeyHOST
As you say, Intel's trying to reassure investors about its role in Elon Musk's massive Terafab chip project, with its CEO, Lip-Bu Tan, telling Bloomberg that Intel will remain involved in the venture, pushing back on concerns that TSMC could take over a bigger role after Elon Musk said he had been in talks with TSMC.
Alex CoffeyHOST
Should also note that Elon himself, uh, perhaps was looking to calm those fears, posting on X that Tesla and SpaceX will build and run, quote, the fab, adding that TSMC might only sublease part of the facility.
Alex CoffeyHOST
The clarification comes after Intel shares lost more than 5% earlier this week on worries its role in the Terafab could be diminished.
JeffreyAUDIENCE
Um, I'm, I got a question about Intel.
JeffreyAUDIENCE
Uh, would you hold it into this earnings season? You know, the analysts aren't so good on it but, you know, it's like kind of this good CPU market and, you know, you got Lip-Butan going on and is this Terafab news? Is it just, like, kind of temporary? Anyways, love the question.
JeffreyAUDIENCE
Uh, thanks a lot.
Marella FernandezHOST
Okay, thank you, uh, for that question.
Jim CramerHOST
Plus, Intel has a new foundry coming online with great specs, albeit not as great as Taiwan Semi.
Jim CramerHOST
Intel's CEO, Lip-Bu Tan, has turned his company from a has-been into a force to be reckoned with.
Jim CramerHOST
Of course, Lisa Su's AMD has left them in the dust.
Jim CramerHOST
More on that later.

Jim CramerHOST
Still, thanks to the launch of Meta's personal AI agent platform, anything connected to the CPU business caught fire because agentic AI requires lots of high-end central processing units, CPUs, and AMD's arguably become the top dog in CPUs.
Jim CramerHOST
[growls] Honestly, it's incredible how far this company's come under the leadership of Dr. Lisa Su.
Jim CramerHOST
She took over as CEO of AMD roughly 12 years ago, and at the time, this company was an afterthought, an asterisk, just a total also-ran semiconductor company, one that spent nearly its entire existence living in the shadow of Intel.
Jim CramerHOST
For decades, I got the sense that Intel was going easy on them.
Brad ShoemakerHOST
Final V zero two.
Brad ShoemakerHOST
Like a lot of folks, my age, I've been getting back into retro handhelds, both the Chinese emulators and collecting originals like the OG game boy.
Brad ShoemakerHOST
My 13 year old has outgrown his original Nintendo switch and mostly tossed it aside.
Brad ShoemakerHOST
Um, I'd like to preserve it for him to get nostalgic over when he's middle-aged.

Will SmithHOST
other chaos to cover.
Brad ShoemakerHOST
But I both have listened to political podcasts talking about this recently and then went and followed up on even just the very obvious publicly available information.
Brad ShoemakerHOST
And the very quick gist, which again, you can go and look at social media posts and put together yourself, is that the new CEO of Intel, Lip Bu Tan, is Chinese.
Brad ShoemakerHOST
And it seems like it was just standard issue Sinophobia that people like Senator Tom Cotton immediately started grousing about his supposed connections to the Chinese Communist Party.
Chandra R. SrikkanthHOST
As listed startups mature, block deals are giving venture and growth investors a new way to return capital to limited partners, while public market institutions absorb the next leg of ownership.
Chandra R. SrikkanthHOST
Now, Ultraviolet has raised $85 million in Series E funding led by Yali Capital, TDK Ventures, with Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan also investing in a personal capacity and joining the company as an advisor.
Chandra R. SrikkanthHOST
It marks a shift for the Bengaluru-based startup, which says most of the capital raised during its first eight years went into R&D and building its technology platform.
Chandra R. SrikkanthHOST
The growth funding will grow-- will go towards scaling its existing F77 and X47 models, launching the Tesseract and Shockwave, and developing its next generation of global EV platforms.
