mac models

hello i recently heard that new macs not using intel will be released soon and i have only bought my mac 6 months ago which is still somehow new. Should intel-based mac users be worried that new macs are coming and new features wont be available for us? and will the new macOS big sur work fine with intel-based macs?

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.15
