Intel rose after expanding its Google Cloud AI partnership, as investors look for signs the company can turn data center momentum into meaningful revenue in a market dominated by Nvidia.

Intel confirmed it has signed on to Musk’s Terafab initiative, a Tesla/SpaceX/xAI effort to build vertically integrated chip factories, and said it will help refactor silicon fab technology. As reported by Bloomberg, CEO Lip-Bu Tan described the collaboration as a step change in how advanced chips and packaging are produced.

Dell’s 14-inch Plus laptop features Intel’s Core Ultra 7 256V processor with a 47 TOPS neural processing unit, making it one of the more affordable entry points into Microsoft’s Copilot+ PC ecosystem.
