# AMD unveils new AI chips and server racks to compete with Nvidia AMD's MI455X accelerators and Helios racks aim to make waves in the AI market. - **Source:** [The Next Web](https://brifing.si/source/afe24b20-b275-4c19-b9a6-8bb3c8babae7) - **Published:** 2026-07-23 - **Topic:** [Data & AI](https://brifing.si/c/data-ai) - **Original article:** - **On Brifing:** https://brifing.si/s/2f8584c8-5d55-450f-9a09-b4350fbe1a29 ## AMD's AI move AMD unveiled new products to compete with Nvidia at its Advancing AI event in San Francisco. The MI455X AI accelerators, Helios server racks housing 72 chips, and TSMC's 2nm-process Venice Epyc processors demonstrate the company's ambitions in the AI market. ## Market potential AMD predicts the AI accelerator market will exceed $1 trillion by 2030. However, investors caused a 4% stock drop during the presentation, reflecting skepticism about challenging Nvidia's current dominance in this space. ## OpenAI and Cerebras support AMD announced OpenAI will deploy Helios racks 'at massive scale'. The partnership with Cerebras will deliver low-latency AI inference solutions. These collaborations are part of AMD's ecosystem expansion strategy in AI infrastructure. ## $5 billion investment AMD revealed plans to invest $5 billion in Anthropic and deploy 2 gigawatts of MI450 series GPUs by 2027. This move strengthens AMD's position in the large language model market by powering Claude AI's infrastructure needs. ## Head-to-head with Nvidia Venice Epyc processors directly challenge Nvidia's Vera chips. While independent benchmarks are pending, AMD claims performance superiority. The competition has expanded from individual chips to complete end-to-end data center solutions. ## Industry significance AMD's initiatives are crucial for maintaining healthy competition in the AI hardware market. Strong alternatives to Nvidia's potential monopoly promise better price/performance ratios for both enterprises and end-users in AI computing. ## Sources covering this story - https://thenextweb.com/news/amd-advancing-ai-helios-mi455-cerebras-nvidia — --- _Summary written by Brifing from the original reporting.
