AMD unveiled the Halo Station, a next-generation AI workstation, at IFA 2026: 96 CPU cores, 2TB of RAM, and up to 576GB of GPU memory.
The catch: it costs roughly $100k–$150k. The poster jokes it's 'Sam Altman's worst nightmare' — hardware that runs massive models locally — and while it's aimed at organizations, it signals where big-VRAM local workstations are heading.
