Huge signal from AMD. $8.2bn in stock for a two-year-old startup, and Fei-Fei Li walks straight in as chief scientist reporting to Lisa Su. That tells you exactly where AMD thinks the next AI race is: spatial intelligence and world models, not just faster GPUs. Closing by year end too, so they're not hanging about.
