Matt Kimball says AMD’s Advancing AI event showed unusually strong momentum, and argues that the competitive field has shifted from individual chips to complete AI systems.
He says Helios gives AMD a real rack-scale answer to NVIDIA, while also highlighting AMD’s enterprise deployment breadth—from PCIe cards to 8-way GPU servers and rack-scale systems. He also points to the Cerebras partnership as a sign of disaggregated inference and a more open, heterogeneous stack.
