有没有英语大神看看：Intel要授权任何厂商做X86吗？

[an_bachelor]

今天看到新闻：

Gelsinger said Intel will aim to change that global balance by embracing the foundry business where it historically has been a minor player. Intel will offer chip customers the ability license out its own technological crown jewels - known as the x86 instruction set architecture - as well as offer to build chips based on technology from Arm Ltd or the emerging open source technology RISC-V, he said.

这段是不是说，intel不但会给客户代工，也会授权x86给客户呢？如此一来是不是任何公司都能做x86 cpu了？

Arm 不也授权HW么，是要维护x86生态吧

应该还是面对RISC-V的压力的一个反应吧，反正之前也不是没有授权过。相对于RISC-V，X86指令集有点儿太重型了，在很多场景下，其实用不到这么复杂的东西，可以用在更多领域的RISC-V相对于主要用在移动端的ARM来说，对Intel的威胁明显更大。
