There is no doubt several companies will try doing high-end RISC-V designs. Like we saw with Arm, some will go bust, and eventually some may succeed. Intel may well pump a few billion into RISC-V (and seem to be willing already given there were rumours to buy out SiFive). However I expect it just to be a minor irritation. Remember the 10+ billion Intel spent on trying to get x86 into mobile phones? It didn't even make a dent in Arm's market share. Intel would have to spend many times that to become a threat to Arm.
