Is this day 1 support a claim about the future or something they've demonstrated? Because if it involves the future it is safer to just assume AMD will muck it up somehow when it comes to their AI chips. It isn't like their failure in the space is a weird one-off - it has been confusingly systemic for years. It'd be nice if they pull it off, but it could easily be day 1 support for a chip that turns out to crash the computer.
I dunno; I suppose they can execute on server parts. But regardless, a good plan here is to let someone else go first and report back.
They've been able to execute well for Ryzen, EPYC, and Radeon in the data center. I don't really think there's any reason to believe they can't or even wouldn't be able to do ROCm on client cards, but up until recently they wouldn't commit.
