AMD is a deeply unserious company. They could have made boatload of money for shareholders like Nvidia did, but the AMD management looks very bad to me.

Shareholders of AMD should look into it and do some firings of top Executives/CEO until morale improves.

I think the problem AMD has is that they just don't have enough engineers and can't hire more because nvidia (an to a lesser extent Apple, AWS, Google and Microsoft) just gobbles up all people who have any experience with this sort of thing.

A long time ago AMD decided to 100% focus on budget consumer graphics (including consoles), that decision was the right decision at the time. However being in low-margin business it seems they don't have the people (or the budget to last-minute hire) to pump out the R&D for a generic neural network platform without moving people away from their consumer graphics division.
