According to AMD Chair and CEO Dr. Lisa Su, the second quarter saw significant advancements in their 4th Gen EPYC and Ryzen 7000 processors. Additionally, the company’s AI engagements experienced remarkable growth, increasing by more than seven times. Multiple customers initiated or expanded programs supporting future deployments of Instinct accelerators at scale. AMD also made substantial progress in meeting crucial hardware and software milestones to cater to the growing customer demand for their data center AI solutions. The company is on-track to launch and ramp production of MI300 accelerators in the fourth quarter.

AMD EVP, CFO, and Treasurer Jean Hu expressed satisfaction with the second quarter’s execution.
