Yes. We have a quad MI300A server and run several inference models on it. For $107k it has saved us so much money on tokens already and it's a heck of a lot faster than cloud services.

Do you do research? Because if you don't, then you're not the target market for general purpose AI compute chips.

We use it for business analysis in a manufacturing environment (inputs from sensors, databases, external signals, etc.)

We also use it as a programming tool to design software, ingest logs and do analysis, find patterns in data, etc.

We bought it because we were burning through too much cash with Claude and Gemini.

Just how much of dev ux do you need? A foundational library, of course, but as the AI companies keep saying, their models can vibe-code what's needed for those chips anyway.
