The CEO detailed that AMD, together with Dell Technologies, is already collaborating with the University of Cambridge to expand its national AI infrastructure footprint. This includes supporting the new Zenith AI supercomputer. The supercomputer is a major UK AI-for-science platform funded by the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT) and UK Research and Innovation (UKRI). It is designed to serve a broad range of scientific disciplines like healthcare research, climate modeling, materials science, and engineering simulation.
