The shift from chatbots to agentic AI is changing the compute requirements behind AI infrastructure. In a new conversation with Austin Lyons, AMD Corporate VP Madhu Rangarajan explains why there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to agentic compute. Agents don’t just generate answers. They orchestrate workflows, call tools, run code, access databases, verify results and iterate, creating a diverse mix of CPU and GPU workloads along the way. Madhu discusses: ✅ Why agentic AI is driving new demand for CPU compute ✅ The emerging importance of concurrency and “threads per megawatt” ✅ Why host CPUs, general-purpose compute and agent orchestration can require different performance characteristics ✅ How enterprises are thinking about AI “tokenomics” and routing workloads across cloud and on-prem resources ✅ Why an open, broad compute portfolio matters as agentic workloads continue to evolve Watch the full Bit by Bit conversation: https://bit.ly/4bGsXfe
