I can't believe anyone actually said this with a straight face.

It's not an inaccurate statement... I think that Intel's AI engine (NPU) is only available in one very-recently-released mobile processor, correct? AMD has had their dedicated AI on-chip thing for a year or more on multiple lines of CPU's.

  Sure, but it's pretty clear that Nvidia "leads the AI hardware revolution", if such a thing exists.

    In what sense though? AMD hardware is very comparable. Unless you call Nvidia's lock-in through CUDA "leading".

    That's why they diplomatically added "in the x86 market" :)

There are only two (and a half) companies in the x86 market. They shipped their Phoenix processors with an inference accelerator a year ago. And Intel only now is shipping their equivalent.
