This is different than what Intel/AMD/Nvidia/Apple does when designing their own chips, right?

Yes it’s very different. The competencies needed to design a chip and manufacturer a chip at scale reliably takes a different set of competencies.

Even designing different types of chips require different competencies. Apple couldn’t just design a graphics chip to compete with Nvidia and infamously, Intel couldn’t design a modem chip to compete with Qualcomm
