Intel's CEO Pat Gelsinger admitted that the move to integrate memory on the processor package with Lunar Lake was a financial miscalculation for the company.
Gelsinger emphasized that future chips will revert to a traditional design with off-package memory, noting that integrating memory directly on the CPU wasn't sustainable for Intel's business.
Lunar Lake was meant to be a niche product focusing on performance and battery life, but the shift towards mass production revealed its dependency on external partners for memory.
The challenges faced with Lunar Lake highlighted Intel's struggle as their partnership with TSMC and reliance on external supplies made the project unprofitable amid broader company restructuring.
