Can you tell if G3 has 3nm chip ?

Can you tell if G3 has 3nm chip ?

"We now have the first detailed specs of Google's upcoming Tensor G3 chipset that will premiere in the Pixel 8 series in the Fall. The chipset will be built on Samsung Foundry's new 4nm (4LPP) process and will feature a nine-core CPU, and a ten-core GPU."

Exynos-based. Why, Google? Why?
Samsung is apparently ditching Exynos altogether for the S24 lineup, which makes good sense for a flagship.
Why can't Google collab with Qualcomm instead?
