Intel
Intel Corporation is an American multinational corporation and technology company. Intel designs, manufactures and sells computer components and related products for business and consumer markets.
Intel supplies microprocessors for most manufacturers of computer systems, and is one of the developers of the x86 series of instruction sets found in most personal computers (PCs). It also manufactures chipsets, network interface controllers, flash memory, graphics processing units (GPUs), field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), and other devices related to communications and computing. Intel has a strong presence in the high-performance general-purpose and gaming PC market with its Intel Core line of CPUs, whose high-end models are among the fastest consumer CPUs, as well as its Intel Arc series of GPUs.

I'm really looking forward to these cards to see how much they've improved upon the first generation though Intel execs saying they might drop out of the GPU market altogether doesn't inspire a lot of confidence. I hope they will at least keep supporting these for the years to come.
As long as they can keep costs down on battlemage and it's reasonably well performing then I doubt they're dropping GPUs any time soon. They made a die bigger than a 3070, but charged half the price. I don't think they even could make money on alchemist if they tried. Plus they can glom it onto their CPUs and make them compete with AMD's APUs and open up a whole new market segment for them.
