The difference this time is that the executive is from Xilinx. Xilinx has had an AI software development team for a while in the FPGA space. AMD has had poor management in the GPU computing space since Raja Koduri's time (he put the best engineering resources on VR during his tenure and ignored deep learning). Subsequent directors have not had a long term vision and left within a few years. Looks like Lisa Su has corrected this now - they seem to have moved AMD software engineers en masse to work under Xilinx management on AI. Remains to be seen if this new management hierarchy will have a better vision and customer focus.
