AMD's Lisa Su Claims That AI As a Technology Has Much More Room To Grow, Having The Potential To Transform Human Lifestyles

Lisa Su is quite the sensation to watch, especially when you look at how she turned Team Red from an ordinary company to the top of the market. Her significance to the semiconductor and the AI markets cannot be ignored, which is why she was awarded TIME’s 2024 CEO of the Year. Lisa gave an interview to TIME, where they talked about semiconductors and the AI segment in general, especially in terms of how AMD will move forward with the market hype.

Emphasizing the importance of AI, Lisa says that AI is one of the most "important technologies" of her career, saying that it holds the power to reshape the way we see the world. AMD's CEO says that even though AI has been in the world for just a few years, the technology is expected to grow exponentially over the coming years, and according to her, it will be improved by 10 times more over twelve months.

Lisa is referring to technology's capabilities and how AI has shown us the potential previously deemed impossible in just a few quarters. From generative AI to AGI capabilities, the technology has evolved tremendously, mainly because every other mainstream tech firm is involved in building up the technology, either through computational means or logical breakthroughs.

Commenting on Intel's recent situation and the sudden change of their CEO, Lisa said that the position is indeed a "tough job" and that she has a lot of respect for Pat Gelsinger as a colleague. Interestingly, Lisa refuted the claims of a potential Intel-AMD merger, one of the wilder rumors out there, saying that the Biden administration had no such intentions. That was mainly in the interview, but it was great to see AMD's CEO Lisa Su on TIME's cover page, and it shows how far Team Red has come under her leadership.
