I feel like they are dropping the ball in the GPU space though, both on desktop and in servers.
They'renot really leveraging it. They killed the steam deck line of "small core count, GPU heavy APUs" which is why Valve hasn't updated it and competitors seem so power hungry. They all but killed server APUs, making them mega expensive and HPC only. They're finally coming out with a M-Pro like consumer APU, but it took until 2025, and pricing will probably be a joke just like their Radeon Pro GPUs...
And I don't even wanna get into the AI space. They get like 99% there and then go "nah, we don't really care about this market, let Nvidia have their monopoly and screw everyone over." It makes me want to pull my hair out.
The fact they pulled ROCM support for older cards boggles the mind.
It wouldn't be possible to dethrone nvidia in AI anyway, at least not alone.
