Advanced Micro Devices is set to launch a raft of AI hardware that will rival Nvidia on Thursday at an event at a downtown convention center in San Francisco. AMD is attempting to capture market share from Nvidia in the fast-growing data center chip sector, especially for so-called inference computing, which is the data crunching that occurs when a user queries a chatbot such as OpenAI's ChatGPT. AMD is expected to show off the company's data center hardware that includes its first-generation server racks called Helios, which it is marketing as a rival to a similar design from Nvidia, which is rolling out its second-generation product this year.

U.S. chipmaking giants Intel and Advanced Micro Devices are signing longer-term purchase commitments with Chinese server customers for data-centre processors as prices surge, two people familiar with the talks said. The move highlights a broader consequence of the AI boom: demand has spread beyond AI accelerators to memory, networking gear and server processors, giving suppliers greater leverage to seek long-term purchase deals. AI data centres require not only Nvidia-style graphics processors (GPUs) but also large numbers of central processing units (CPUs) to support servers, storage, networking and inference workloads.
