Three of the four main computer processor manufacturers in the world simultaneously announced the new artificial intelligence products they are preparing, naturally intending to gain the most privileged position possible in this market that is growing at a diabolical pace.
O Nvidia which has experienced a frantic recovery in its share price in recent months as the current leading manufacturer of processors supporting technologies artificial intelligence announced on Sunday the creation of a new family of AI processors.
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang appeared at the Computex fair in Taipei and said the company has started to create a new family or platform, as he called it splinter artificial intelligence called Rubin. The Rubin family of chips will include new graphics processing units (GPUs), central processing units (CPUs) and networking chips. Huang said Rubin chips will appear in 2026, without going into detail about their capabilities. The head of Nvidia revealed that from 2026 the company will launch a new generation of artificial intelligence processors every year, instead of every two years, as originally planned.
The candidates for the crown
The baton was taken by AMD CEO Lisa Su, who from the Computex stage presented the company’s new artificial intelligence processors, as well as its plans for the development of AI chips over the next two years with the aim of competing directly with Nvidia currently controlling it for 80 years. % of the AI processor market. Sou presented the MI325X processor that should appear in the fall.
It also presented the MI350 processor that will appear in 2025 and will be based on a new chip architecture. According to AMD’s CEO, this chip will perform 35 times better than the company’s existing AI chips. Su also spoke about a family of processors that AMD will present in 2026, the MI400 series which will be based on a new architecture called ‘Next’.
Shortly afterwards, the CEO of British processor manufacturer ARM made an appearance at Computex claiming that by the end of 2025 there will be one hundred billion electronic devices powered by ARM’s AI chips, without providing further details about these chips.
Traditional processor giant Intel is currently adopting a wait-and-see attitude, but it should be safe to say that we will soon hear its own announcements in the field of artificial intelligence, which will certainly be of great interest.
The war for supremacy in the critical area of processors in the artificial intelligence industry has just begun, and the battlefronts will be many, and its development could have great interest and twists.
