Intel expands 18A reach with Wildcat Lake AI PC chips

What happened

Intel is expanding its computing platform strategy for agentic AI and enterprise workloads with the Intel Core Series 3 processor, codenamed Wildcat Lake, targeting mainstream consumer and commercial notebooks. The processor combines Intel 18A and TSMC 6nm processes in a two-chiplet design, using Universal Chiplet Interconnect Express (UCIe) standard chiplet interconnects and organic-substrate multi-chip packaging (MCP) to lower the cost barrier for bringing advanced process technology to mainstream PCs. This is a platform/product strategy disclosure of a planned nature; the source does not state a production timeline.
