Advanced Micro Devices Inc (AMD: NSD) announced a new generation of artificial intelligence (AI) chips at a trade show in Taipei yesterday, signaling their intent to grab a larger share of the booming AI market. The new chips include the Ryzen AI 300 series for laptops, the Ryzen 9000 series for desktops, and the MI325X accelerator aimed at data centers.
Targeting Next-Gen AI Laptops:
The Ryzen AI 300 series is designed specifically for next-generation AI-powered laptops. These chips are expected to deliver significant performance improvements over previous models and will reportedly support Microsoft’s AI chatbot, Copilot. This integration suggests AMD is looking to position itself at the forefront of AI-powered productivity tools for consumers.
Taking on Nvidia in Data Centers:
The MI325X accelerator is aimed at data centers, where companies are increasingly relying on AI for tasks like data analysis and machine learning. This chip directly competes with offerings from Nvidia, the current leader in AI hardware. AMD has not yet released benchmarks, but they claim the MI325X will offer superior performance compared to its predecessor.
Conclusion:
The launch of these new chips intensifies the competition in the AI hardware space. AMD’s move comes just days after Nvidia announced its own next-generation AI chip platform, Rubin, scheduled for release in 2026.
