Anush Elangovan, corporate vice president of software development at AMD, said that Brium’s advanced software expertise will boost AMD’s ability to deliver highly optimized AI solutions, particularly for its Instinct GPUs.
A major benefit AMD sees in Brium is its ability to optimize the entire inference stack before the model even reaches the hardware. This capability reduces reliance on specific hardware configurations, leading to faster, more efficient AI performance across most deployments.
It must be noted that this deal is AMD’s fourth strategic move in the past two years, aimed at strengthening its AI portfolio. Previously, AMD acquired Silo AI, Nod.AI, and Mipsology, all focused on AI software optimization.
