Intel 's incoming CEO Lip-Bu Tan has considered significant changes to its chip manufacturing methods and artificial intelligence strategies ahead of his return to the company on Tuesday .

The new trajectory includes restructuring the company's approach to AI and staff cuts to address what Tan views as a slow-moving and bloated middle management layer.

Intel reported an annual loss of $19 billion in 2024 , its first since 1986 .

Intel 's contract manufacturing operation can succeed if Tan wins over at least two large customers to produce a high volume of chips, analysts and Intel executives told Reuters .

Part of the effort to lure large customers will involve improving Intel 's chip manufacturing process to make it easier for potential customers like Nvidia and Google to use.
