That still might take 10y because lithography printers aren’t cheap, their location isn’t cheap, and so much more. Once you watch an Intel, TSMC, or Texas Instru… chip factory tour.

Wait, why doesn’t Texas Instrument cash in or did they offshore their production too?

Fun fact...the chip maker and the calculator company are completely seperate. Don't really know why it's fun but well it is a fact.

They're already selling silicone designed twenty years ago at absurd markup, so Texas Instruments has no need to jeopardize that with the AI fad.
