So speculation and no fact? We can just as well dream that Intel will have HMC memory attached.
You can wake up from your dream. Already in the pipeline for Intel:

Only for server CPUs though. And HBM2, not HMC.
Also, anyone would be foolish not to understand that the goal for AMD is to combine APU + HBM to make the most of their assets. If done wisely, it will be awesome, powerful, and very competitive both performance and price-wise.
AMD should also have a competitive edge. nVidia can't compete, since they don't have an x86 CPU license and don't make APUs. Intel will have a hard time competing on the GPU side, since AMD is ahead of Intel on that. So if AMD just can come close enough to Intel on the CPU performance with Zen (no need to beat them), they'll be in a great position.
