Intel’s upcoming Falcon Shores GPU will survive the brutal cost-cutting measures as part of its “next phase of transformation.” An Intel spokeswoman confirmed that the company will release Falcon Shores as a GPU. The company also plans to integrate Gaudi processors into the GPU.
“Our AI investments will complement and leverage our x86 franchise – with a focus on enterprise, cost-efficient inferencing. Our roadmap for Falcon Shores remains,” the spokeswoman said.
Intel is laying a “strong foundation” for its AI roadmap with Gaudi and sees significant AI opportunities across the client, edge, and data center business, the spokeswoman said.
“Falcon Shores is indeed a GPU that integrates Intel Gaudi IP,” the spokeswoman said.

They want them to succeed. They know there needs to be an alternative to TSMC and Intel is the preferred competitor versus Samsung. Customers are really hating on Samsung these days. It is also sentimental. A lot of use grew up with Intel and quite a few worked there, even some TSMC people. Intel really is iconic and not just in semiconductors. My first computer out of college was an IBM XT powered by the almighty 8086 with 640kb of memory, a 10MB hard drive and floppy disk. Iconic.

Great question. I can't find any credible source that claims to know anything about the architectural details. Without that I don't think it is even reasonable to hazard a guess.
