"AMD - the card I'm getting instead of Nvidia"
Except they are - allegedly - also focusing more on AI, and not engineering a high level 8000s card.
Still better than NVidia. AMD will get my next 1.6k for CPU + GPU.
I really can't wait for this marketing fad to sputter out like NFTs etc.
It predates nfts and probably will live on for... Many years to come if not ever.
Well every major tech product probably needs to have "AI" somewhere anywhere, otherwise you'll probably have a ~~problem of being too honest~~ marketing disadvantage because there will be potential buyers who don't understand anything about it but think "Thing with AI is better than Thing without AI", period. Doesn't even matter if there's any AI involved anywhere or if the AI feature is actually useful. Unfortunately the tech industry is always heavily riding on hype trains and AI is the current one.
*Now we can charge you even more for these cards!
I mean, GTX cards were also powering AI before RTX...
But they weren't quite charging enough... Now they can really charge you now
/s kinda
