> Intel, one of the last companies in the semiconductor industry that both designs and manufactures its own chips
What other companies also do this? Are Nvidia, and AMD on this list?

Big boys like Maxim, Marvel, Broadcom, Qualcomm, nVidia, AMD, Ti[1] don't have their own fabs.
What about memory? Samsung, Hynix, Micron all do their own stuff.
Analog ICs? National, Ti[1], NXP, Skyworks, ONsemi, ST, to name a few.
[1] Ti got rid of their fabs years ago to switch to TSMC but over the years they acquired a few companies small than them that have their own fabs. Those divisions still use them for fabbing those products.
National was acquired by TI ~8yr ago.
No and no. IBM (for Power products) and arguably Samsung (for their mobile chips) are effectively the only ones left on their own leading edge nodes. Everyone else uses TSMC, GloFo, or SMIC.
