AMD and Oracle's $300B AI Chip Dance, Nvidia Watches Jealously
Hold onto your GPUs, folks! AMD is pulling out all the stops by planning to unleash 50,000 Instinct MI450 AI chips into Oracle data centers starting in late 2026, just a dazzling 1,299 days from today! This follows a multi-billion-dollar baby date with OpenAI, ramping up competition with the chip titan Nvidia, who's currently flexing a $4 trillion market cap. Oracle apparently likes their AI spicy, promising 4.5 gigawatts of compute juice in a glowing $300 billion deal over five years ā yes, billion with a B! Meanwhile, AMD shares are yawning at a modest 2.5% lift, Oracle's shares are playing financial rollercoaster, and Karan Batta is pretty confident about AMD's 'inferencing space' charm offensive. Oh, and just to add some wattage sizzle, Broadcom and OpenAI secured 10 gigawatts of custom AI magic last Monday. Welcome to the Silicon Valley AI Olympics, where cash, chips, and power bills race faster than your grandma's Wi-Fi!
