Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC), the National University of Taiwan (NTU) and Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have jointly announced that a significant breakthrough was made in the development of 1-nanometer (nm) chips.

There is no denial TSMC is a major force in the semi industry especially in the area of chip fabrications. But I am not sure why we are being so pessimistic and give so little credit to the US technological prowess. America still leads and is the envy of the world in scientific research. TSMC, Samsung and pretty much every single tech conglomerate in China got to their dominate position because of their government supports, financially or otherwise (yes, market interference). So let us cheer on the Intel's, the IBM's, and even the MIT's in the TSMC paper, who are powered and driven by free world capitalism and market economy.

China private companies doesn't really have China govrt support. what they have is China allowed them to do business. look at the global 500, all the top companies from China are State owned. there is a phrase in Chinese (国进民退), there are some State owned companies like Huawei disguised as private company.

I wouldn't say any of us are pessimistic and would give little credit to the technological prowess of the United States.
Most of your points are valid. Neither the governments of Taiwan or South Korea would even exist today without the protection and safety the US provides them. TSMC and Samsung both enjoy strong support from their respective governments. Management at TSMC indicated in a previous earnings call that they could not avoid using/replace US technology in their manufacturing process.
America is the envy of the world in scientific research...however, we need to maintain our edge and not sit on our laurels! China is closing the gap fast...we need to beat them back not just for us but for the world. We should never allow China and Russia to supersede our technological capabilities.
Bad management is what happened at Intel and IBM. Intel sat on its laurels and lost its process manufacturing edge. IBM...the fact that Ginni Rometty was even allowed to remain as CEO/executive chairman for 8 years is an utter disgrace. If you love 22 consecutive quarters of revenue decline and CEOs accepting pay bonuses during layoffs and offshoring, Ginni is your gal! Luckily, we still have plenty of great companies to push us further.
IBM Research vice president has said it isn't fair to compare the pair. He also declared it's a great time to be in semiconductors, even with a global chip crunch.

I can't say this rollout schedule is impossible. But it's a very aggressive timeline. Because IBM is Intel's semiconductor technology partner, does that mean in three to four years Intel will be able to skip all the troubles posed by Intel's 7nm and 5nm and to become the 2nm king?
