Disagree.

If enough money moves behind RISC-V, it will catch up. This is exactly how that could happen.

No way Qualcomm just stops selling these chips. As the article says, it is not just Windows machines but smart phones as well.

This will all conclude with a new agreement between Qualcomm and ARM. They both need it to.

If Qualcomm has to stop using ARM for their high-end agenda, their next attempt will use RISC-V for sure.

So ARM is just playing hardball ?

I like RISC V, the idea of an open standard is better for everyone. In theory hobbyists could eventually make their own chips.

I'm always open to being wrong, Chat GPT 5( or whatever they have in the lab that's not public) might be able to design RISC V chips faster than we can imagine.

China is the enough money. They have reasons to dedicate government resources to keeping RISCV development moving along until it is a real option for all current use cases.
