>Essentially, we’ve had no major forms of innovation in memory for three decades – SRAM, DRAM, and Flash as the only memory types in broad deployment

Not sure about that, does 3D XPoint or Optane memory count as new type of memory innovation, it's a joint venture between Intel and Micron [1].

Was… it still is some of the best you can buy on the used market new or old. Best endurance and speed. Shame they got rid of it.

Where are they going to get fab capacity? I doubt Micron, Samsung, and others will provide fab capacity for this. This is a long road ahead.

Could they build their own fab?

I've been thinking Intel should bring back it's other-than-cpu biz, get into memory, bring back 3dxpoint, all these things. Could then vertically integrate: intel CPUs + intel chipsets + intel ram + intel nics + intel ... then sell the whole integrated thing for more than the sum of its parts.

this could be one part of that.
