"On the CPU side we have a much tamer announcement, basically the name Sapphire Rapids, a name we got slightly wrong when we exclusively told you about it two and a half years ago. Why are we down on the CPU side? Look at the slide above, specifically the 2020 column with Cooper Lake and Ice Lake. Notice the bit about BFloat16 on Cooper? This is a good thing, no questions there, and Intel has been pimping the whole AI functions angle pretty hard for a while now."

How many security holes are these releases going to have, and how much value will be lost in the short and long-terms...

Not enough to bother the US Govt apparently.

"These are the components that will be in the Aurora exascale supercomputer delivered in 2021 to the US Department of Energy (DoE.)"

As long as the thing is kept behind a secure perimeter defense, the CPU security holes won't be much of a problem. Now if the winning bidder for the contract outsources the coding to CCP funded Indian coders.....
