    The competition for CPUs can be AMD vs ARM vs RISC-V. It doesn’t have to be between two x86 giants.

    That’s better, not necessarily for instruction set reasons, but because ARM and RISC-V are more open to multiple companies stepping in to produce chips.

      Eh, a lot of big players have backed off from custom ARM CPU cores. So the question is how many even have the muscle to compete?

      Double so for RISC-V.
