Intel CEO laments Nvidia’s ‘extraordinarily lucky’ AI dominance, claims it coulda-woulda-shoulda have been Intel::Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger has taken a shot at his main rival in high performance computing, dismissing Nvidia’s success in providing GPUs for AI modelling as “extraordinarily lucky.” Gels
Not really. It did for one generation, against AMD’s ancient Vega iGPU, if you ignore that ~30% of games were buggy or straight up don’t even work on Intel iGPUs.
Apparently latest Arc iGPUs are quite competitive.

Meteor lake isn’t even out yet, so I wasn’t counting that. By the time it comes out, the 7840U will be 9 months old and about to be replaced.
Plus tbh I’m hesitant believing Intel benchmarks. In the past I’ve seen them do things like using much higher memory speeds for their own chips, which for an iGPU is critical.
