What Keller says is super vague. For one he's with Intel for only two months and obviously he isn't allowed to talk about anything remotely interesting.
With the title "rockstar" used in the article. It made me think of what must be an army of engineers and scientists involved in a successful foundry architecture feature size shrink. I guess recognition is for the few.
The title is confusing:
Interview with Jim Keller Interview
To me it sounds like one of those parody interviews done on late night comedy news shows.
