Lisa Su: CHIPS Act has made a huge difference for US semiconductors
“Some people say, hey it's not enough or, you know, it doesn't make a difference. I think it's made a huge difference. It's made a huge difference because what it's What it's really done is it's put at the top of the priority list resiliency and semiconductor b…”
Lisa Su: AI is the most important technology shift in 50 years
“I think AI is probably the most important one I'd like to say, you know, over the last 30 years, 40 years, 50 years because it It's something more than just technology. I mean, it really is, you know, AI becomes the ability for us all to become smarter, more p…”
Lisa Su: AI will be integrated into every product AMD builds
“And, you know, for us at AMD you know, my belief is AI is gonna be everywhere in every product that we build”
Lisa Su: AI hardware will diversify into specialized engines
“If you look, whether you're at the edge you know, with embedded applications industrial applications, automotive applications medical applications, or you're even at the client level in your PC or your phone, you're gonna need different types of AI, and so you…”
Lisa Su: Closed tech ecosystems usually become a problem over time
“Closed walls usually end up being a problem.”
Lisa Su: Moore's Law continues because people find new ways to extend it
“And by the way, I'm a believer in, in, you know Moore's law has been extended so many times because people are super smart and able to come up with different ways of extending the same principle of, you know, more transistors, more capability every couple of y…”
Lisa Su: UALink and UEC prove AI competitors can unite around open standards
“The Ultra Accelerator Link and Ultra Ethernet Consortium are great examples where competitors and peers can come together and say, you know what, we're gonna adopt open standards and we're each gonna innovate on top of that, and you know, those are, you know, …”

“I think even large, large enterprises who typically used to be, let's call it much more conservative in working with startups are also, becoming much more open because again, this is back to the disruption I talked about. Nobody wants to be behind in AI.”
Lisa Su: Adding semiconductor manufacturing capacity takes 18 to 24 months
“It takes 18 months, 24 months to really put that all on board.”
Lisa Su: Hardware bets take 3 to 5 years to prove out
“It, we didn't know. Like, we didn't know at the time when we were making that decision was it gonna be the right bet, but we knew that we had to make that bet, and you really don't figure that out until three to five years out, so your question about how do yo…”
Lisa Su: AMD held 1% server market share at Zen launch
“When we started in the hyperscaler market with our, you know, first generation products that you know, our Zen product portfolio, I think we were about maybe one percent share of the server market”
