Surprisingly enough, several large systems on the top500 list use AMD (and even intel?!!) GPUs.

To me this indicates that AMD and intel have the potential to compete with Nvidia, but they haven't managed to translate that into the general AI/non-HPC market.

I have used some of those systems, namely frontier (AMD). In the case of frontier, it is the US gov hedge their bets. The super computer before was Nvidia and the next is intel. Bunch of politics there which don't translate to business but make a ton of sense for a government.
