“AI is the defining technology shaping the next generation of computing and the largest strategic growth opportunity for AMD,” she added. “We are laser focused on accelerating the deployment of AMD AI platforms at scale in the data center, led by the launch of our Instinct MI300 accelerators planned for later this year and the growing ecosystem of enterprise-ready AI software optimized for our hardware.”
The MI300 falls into a category of chips that companies like OpenAI use to develop products such as ChatGPT.
