The US graduates vastly fewer electrical engineers than any other comparably large nation. We are about equal to Iran. The idea of moving semi manufacturing here is about as likely as it going to Iran. I am sure you just assumed that the US is the best at everything (or even most things) and this is a shock to you but please look it up. It is a fact that the US is a third tier nation at best in engineering and it has been that way since the 80s
Wrong, that’s not what he meant at all. There is zero chance leading nodes will be produced in the US within a decade. There is no talent in the US and they cannot convince the Taiwanese engineers to come here.
It’s totally pathetic that even after buying an entire other modem company they couldn’t even do what Huawei was able to do under sanctions by the entire western world. Huawai’s 5G modem, built on an inferior 7nm process, has been tested to outperform Qualcomm’s. Why are apple engineers so incompetent?
US workers are not lazy but they are relatively uneducated and expensive, which is why other countries prefer not to use them
