I fell asleep 😴 during the keynote, but when I woke up, I realized that Dr. Su did a great job!
I guess the 40% was meant against Zen 4 and it could make a point for DDR4 PC owners to consider the upgrade. Key word is "consider" as I am sure many are still satisfied with their performance. APU will be another story, where DDR4 APU owners may be well-enticed to upgrade to a new DDR5 model, basically get the whole upgrade setup for the price of a mid-range GPU is amazing value.
This block fp16 sounds wild
I'd like to see a comparison of this to the SD E.
In regard to OEM's, Intel and such creating software which seems cool but goes nowhere, here a good suggestion: opensource it! That is how Blender started, it was failed proprietary software and the Dutch guy opensourced it, then the community used it as a foundation and made something entirely else from it which became Blender. The industry picked up the software and started to sponsor it,financing a few tenths of fulltime employees on Blender (they also sell texture-packs).
could you enable CC subtitle in live stream ? thank you!
You know AI is a bubble when every company is trying to milk that cow for all it's worth before people realize it's a donkey.
😆
@pcworld
But I have a BIG question now to try to understand what is the situation....
Are there also "AI PC" Desktop (CPU and desktop computer) or "only" Laptop AI version?
I mean they talk all over about AI on Laptop with laptop AI / copilot+ etc....
But I want/need AI Desktop ! [AI/Gaming PCs] (not talking about Epycs stuff...)
What is exactly the story here?
Cheers
I am responding as a business professional, but not an AI endpoint expert. Some of my points may be corrected and I welcome the commentary: The "AI PC" branding is focused on the *notebook [edited] (consumer and commercial), which previously lacked the large-scale deployment of the horsepower needed to efficiently run AI workloads. AI workloads can run on CPU, NPU and GPU alike, but the CPU is incredibly inefficient at running AI workloads because it also has the bulk of the PC functions to perform and either lacks or is not optimized for the instruction sets. A GPU is far more suited to the AI workload, more so than the NPU, but brings along a higher power consumption, hardware cost and thermal baggage. You can run various AI workloads and models on a GPU now and is where many of the models are developed or refined. An NPU, which is being introduced on the mobile platforms for the reasons I am citing, feature marked power efficiency over C/GPU, lower cost and thermal impact than a GPU, a focused instruction set (not having to manage other CPU functions), and can be included on the chip package directly. This makes the notebook/laptop the most impactful segment to develop and deploy the NPU architecture to the mainstream. It also opens the door to implementation to the desktop, where it can be used but would be less impactful.
This is just my opinion based on past conversations and OEM engineering and marketing meetings. I'm not sure that it is a must have so it would be a little reckless to refresh your notebook fleet, but some users/developers may appreciate AI PC enabled hardware based on their workload and further inclusion of ISV applications.
**added:
for example, you can run Stable Diffusion on a GPU enabled laptop right now with good results. You can run it on an integrated GPU with very poor performance, but you can run Intel OPENvino with the NPU plugin and run image detection and other AI workloads on the NPU with meaningful results. These workloads will bog down your PC if run on the CPU.
There you have it Gordon! They call the new Ryzen mobile CPUs Ryzen AI!
@2:14:45 Really disagree here, too. If youonly cherry pick the best results, it gives a distorted view/presentation of the real average performance uplift of the parts. "Chopping off" the small performance uplifts is absolutely the wrong thing to do...
@2:11:30 This is really wrong! We have a lot of CPU-bound videogames currently being released. We see it in quite a lot of metrics and it mostly comes from the fact that developers/engines are not able (or not forcing themselves) to write multi-threaded code. Main world-thread is still generally single-core limited.
Most recent examples of this are games like Dragon's Dogma 2, Starfield, Hogwart's Legacy, etc.
There's plenty of coverage of this aspect of PC gaming from outlets like IGN (NX Gamer) and Digital Foundry...
Amd scared of intel arrow lake and lunar lake
I am just glad AMD cpus will stay within a reasonable power consumption envelope. I hate a desktop PC that is too hot to keep around with summer incoming.
omegaLUL , intel is garbage dude , sure you will get 5 fps more with intel but at 3x the power draw , you got one thing wrong dumb dumb , people are actually scared of buying 350 watt intel cpus . lol
lol no
Ai ai ai ai … zzzzz
more bla bla bla....
If anyone is annoyed by AI, you might as well just stop using tech. It's here and not going away.
I think people are more annoyed at the companies being untrustworthy and not listening to consumer concerns.
@@kenlen8029 But customers have trained companies to ignore them. We all know step 1 is outrage. Step 2 is outrage. Step 3 is more outrage. Step 4 they are happily using the product.
@@thesupremeginge You are right about that.
yeah. i will go to the computex showdloor tomorrow and i am expecting just non stop flood of AI stuff on the booths.
@@RiceNoodlestw That sounds dangerous. Didn't you hear that it's the devil? You might get burned alive! (sarcasm)
If AMD wants to lead, maybe don't always follow competitors naming, it makes them look like plagiarists
Dear Gordon, your comparison between Nvidia and Thanos goes wrong here: Thanos actually is a good guy trying to do the rigth thing by using extreme means. Yes, it is horrible to kill half the sapient beings in the galaxy and I don't justify it in any way but he does it for the greater good with good intentions (roads to hell being paved with that). So Thanos is not really a bad guy, but of course neither are the Avengers, they also act with good intentions but they might have doomed the galaxy with the overpopulation.
never heard so many ppl talk about nothing at all.
"productivity. flexibility. teamwork, workflow, innovation..." if you drank a shot for every buzzword you are dead now.
also, MS killed it with their 16GB Ram requirement for their super duper AI pc lol
