AMD's inference team has improved the performance of those chips by a lot recently, even beating the B200 So, it's a smart choice

American AI leadership by the American people, for the American people. This National AI Legislative Framework from @mkratsios47 @davidsacks47 and @WhiteHouse team is a commonsense plan for Federal AI legislation. Look forward to working with Congress to realize @POTUS vision!

🤪 Even a 2x performance boost is only about on par with AMD's CPUs from two years ago... phoronix.com/review/nvidia-…

KING ALERT: Congrats to @roaner & @AnushElangovan & 10x AMD China Engineering team for its amazing FP8 MI355 ROCm SGLang disaggregated performance beating NVIDIA Blackwell! They are also the Inference King! 👑

Meta 🤝 AMD Today we’re announcing a multi-year agreement with @AMD to integrate their latest Instinct GPUs into our global infrastructure. With approximately 6GW of planned data center capacity dedicated to this deployment, we’re scaling our compute capacity to accelerate the development of cutting-edge AI models and deliver personal superintelligence to billions around the world.

White House Moves to Lock In Quantum Dominance With Sweeping Executive Order The U.S. is fast-tracking quantum supremacy within the next 180 days. A leaked draft EO 'Ushering In The Next Frontier Of Quantum Innovation,' mandates a national quantum computer, overhauls the 2018 strategy, and weaponizes federal R&D to counter global threats. Agencies are directed to align manufacturing, research, and international engagement, positioning quantum as a cornerstone of economic and national security strategy by 2027. No more lab experiments, this is full deployment mode. nextgov.com/emerging-tech/…

Looking forward to leading the U.S. delegation to the AI Impact Summit in India this month. America is setting the gold standard for AI innovation and we want to share it with our global partners. @UnderSecE, @TradeGov U/S Kimmitt, @BISgov U/S Kessler, & @skrishnan47 will join @USAmbIndia on Team USA in Delhi.

🙏 ROCm ease of use is a high priority

From training to inference at massive scale, delivering on the promise of AI depends on collaboration across open hardware and software. AMD and @OpenAI are working together to tailor hardware like Instinct MI455X and Helios for where AI workloads are going, not just where they are today.

India is working on all 5 layers of the AI architecture: application, model, chip, infra and energy. We are building the foundation for global AI services. 📍 World Economic Forum, Davos

Building on @POTUS’s AI Action Plan, we came to @Davos to share a clear message: we want the world building on American chips, fine tuning on American models, and using American applications. Director @mkratsios47 on @bloombergTV

"Selling AI chips to China is like selling nuclear weapons to North Korea." The Anthropic CEO just went to war with Nvidia at Davos. And dropped the most terrifying satisfying prediction about AI I've ever heard. Dario Amodei and Demis Hassabis sat on the same stage for the first time in a year. The two men building the most powerful AI systems on Earth. The conversation was called "The Day After AGI." And it turned into a countdown clock. Here's what they revealed about our future: Amodei said we're 6-12 months away from AI doing EVERYTHING software engineers do. End to end. Not helping with code. Not writing snippets. REPLACING the entire function. "I have engineers at Anthropic who say I don't write any code anymore. I just let the model write the code." That's the CEO of a $183 billion company telling you his own engineers are becoming obsolete. Inside his own building. Right now. But that's not even the scary part. The scary part is the LOOP: AI writes code → AI does AI research → AI builds better AI → Repeat Once this closes, human progress becomes irrelevant. It's exponential compounding with no ceiling. Amodei's exact words: "If I had to guess, this goes faster than people imagine." Hassabis didn't disagree. Two competitors building the same technology. Same timeline. Same warning. On jobs, Amodei said: "Half of entry-level white-collar jobs could be gone within one to five years." He's already seeing it internally. "I can look forward to a time where on the junior end and the intermediate end, we actually need less and not more people." The CEO of an AI company planning for FEWER employees. While revenue 10x'd. Think about that. Hassabis's advice for students: "If I was talking to undergrads right now, I would tell them to get unbelievably proficient with these tools." Translation: Your degree means nothing. Learn to work WITH the machine or get replaced BY it. Then Amodei went full existential... He quoted Contact. The 1997 alien movie: "If you could ask aliens one question, what would it be?" The answer: "How did you do it? How did you manage to get through this technological adolescence without destroying yourselves?" That's the frame he uses for AI. The guy BUILDING AGI is publicly wondering if humanity survives what he's creating. At Davos. In front of world leaders. Then he dropped the Nvidia bomb. The US just approved chip exports to China. Amodei's response: "I think of this more as like selling nuclear weapons to North Korea and bragging 'oh yeah, Boeing made the case.'" He called it "crazy." Said there would be "grave consequences." The man building the technology is telling governments they're making catastrophic mistakes. But nobody's listening. When asked why they can't just slow down: "We have geopolitical adversaries building the same technology at a similar pace. It's very hard to have an enforceable agreement." So basically we CAN'T stop even if we wanted to. The race has no brakes. But it's interesting that both have different timelines when it comes to AGI. Amodei: AGI by 2026-2027 Hassabis: 50% chance by end of decade But both also say the self-improvement loop is the only variable that matters If AI builds AI, everything accelerates beyond control. If it can't, we get more time. We're about to find out which reality we're in. Amodei's final words: "The biggest thing to watch is AI systems building AI systems. That will determine whether it's a few more years or whether we have wonders and a great emergency in front of us." Wonders AND emergency. Same sentence. From the man running the second-most-advanced AI lab on the planet. The day after AGI is arriving. And it feels like the people building it are more terrified than we are.

Taiwanese @aseglobal, a leading company in packaging and testing of semiconductor chips, turned to AMD to power their smart factories and data centers—allowing them to increase compute resources, improve client PC productivity, and lower total cost of ownership.

It was fun to share stage with @LisaSu at her #CES2026 keynote!

Will open AI ecosystems win out over closed models? @AMD CEO @LisaSu explains the passion for open source AI on tonight's episode of "Wall Street Week." Tune in at 6 p.m. ET bloom.bg/4rSqoNv

Yesterday, we launched PAX SILICA, a partnership built for the AI age. This is the first time countries are organizing around compute, silicon, minerals and manufacturing as shared strategic assets. President Trump, Secretary Rubio and @davidsacks47 understood earlier than anyone that AI is the new backbone of economic power. This declaration operationalizes that insight. Building off of President Trump’s landmark AI Action Plan, this is American AI diplomacy at its best: building flexible coalitions, shaping markets, and putting AMERICA FIRST! 🇺🇸

This is one of the most underrated untold stories of the AI Boom—blue collar jobs are roaring back!

The Genesis Mission represents a bold national effort to harness AI for scientific discovery and innovation. Thank you @POTUS @SecretaryWright for your leadership. @AMD is proud to work with @ENERGY and our National labs to advance U.S. technology leadership.
