A History of Rivalry

AMD and Intel have been fierce competitors for decades in the chip market.

A Common Enemy

Both companies see Nvidia as a major threat in the growing field of Artificial Intelligence (AI).

Open Ecosystems for the Win

AMD's Forrest Norrod advocates for open standards to foster innovation and competition.

The Battle for AI Supremacy

Both AMD and Intel are launching powerful new AI accelerators to compete with Nvidia.

Beyond the Accelerators

The focus of collaboration is on open standards for interconnects, not the accelerators themselves.

Breaking Free from Proprietary Silos

Nvidia's NVLink and NVSwitch technologies lock customers into their ecosystem.

The Power of Open Standards

Open standards like Ethernet have historically dominated the datacenter landscape.

Acknowledging Nvidia's Lead

AMD recognizes Nvidia's early investment and success in AI.

The Future of AI

The battle for AI dominance is far from over. Collaborations like UA Link and the AI Platform Alliance signal a shift towards open innovation.
