Speaking to Reuters, the AWS manager said that Amazon Web Services, the world’s largest cloud computing provider, is considering using the new artificial intelligence chips that AMD introduced the other day, but has not yet made a final decision. On the corporate side, although AMD has strengthened its hand in recent years, especially artificial intelligence-centered Nvidia’s graphics cards dominate the market.Amazon may choose AMD
AMD Chief Executive Lisa Su presented a menu of all the pieces needed to build the kind of systems that would power services like ChatGPT. Corporate customers will also be able to customize these menus as they wish and build a flexible platform. “We think a lot of people will want options and personalize what they need in their data center,” said Lisa Su.While AWS has not made any public commitments to use AMD’s new MI300 chips in cloud services, Dave Brown, vice president of computing cloud at Amazon, said AWS is evaluating them. On the other hand, Brown stated that they also evaluated Nvidia’s artificial intelligence chips, but the Nvidia DGX Cloud system did not suit them: “They approached us, we looked at the business model, and it didn’t make much sense for AWS due to the company’s long experience in building reliable servers and its current supply chain expertise.” If Amazon agrees with AMD, we can say that the red team will make an important show of strength.
