Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) is aiming to challenge the dominance of Nvidia in the AI semiconductor space with the introduction of its new artificial intelligence chips at the Computex 2024 technology trade show on Monday. 

During the event, AMD CEO Lisa Su unveiled the new MI325X accelerator, which will be available the fourth quarter of 2024.The company also unveiled a new Ryzen AI 300 chipset range aimed at powering the new Microsoft AI PCs. This new range of chipsets is likely to give direct competition to Snapdragon’s X series and Intel’s Meteor Lake series. 

Speaking about the her company’s focus on AI, Su stated, “AI is our number one priority, and we’re at the beginning of an incredibly exciting time for the industry as AI transforms virtually every business, improves our quality of life and reshapes every part of the computing market,”

The announcement by AMD comes soon after an announcement of new chipsets by market leader Nvidia. The Jensen Huang-led company had introduced a new ‘Rubin’ line of AI chipsets to succeed the ‘Blackwell’ model, which was introduced earlier this year.

The newly launched Ryzen AI 300 series will be available from July in some select Copilot Plus PCs like Asus Vivobook S15 and HP OmniBook. 

Microsoft CEO Sataya Nadella while talking about the new chipsets from AMD said, “We are in the midst of a massive AI platform shift, with the promise to transform how we live and work… That’s why our deep partnership with AMD, which has spanned multiple computing platforms, from the PC to custom silicon for Xbox, and now to AI, is so important to us.”

The new Copilot+ PCs are an attempt by Microsoft to bring the back the rivalry with Apple in the laptop space. Notably, Apple’s MacBook were also previously powered by the Intel chipsets but Cupertino based tech giant has had a significant advantage since it made the switch to ARM-based M series silicon. 

With generative AI taking centre stage and the introduction of the new Snapdragon X series, AMD’s Ryzen AI 300 series and other such processors, Microsoft is aiming to outdo Apple laptops in terms of performance and usability.
