Self-Driving Startup Turing Adopts AMD MI300 GPUs After AMD Backing
NVDA•Self-driving startup Turing secured an undisclosed investment from AMD and plans to deploy AMD’s MI300 GPUs for training its autonomous systems, shifting from Nvidia’s H100 GPUs. Nvidia shares dipped 1.39% as the startup taps AMD’s chip lineup, intensifying competition in automotive AI hardware.
1. AMD Funding Boosts Turing
Turing announced a strategic investment from AMD that will support its next-generation self-driving software development. The funding deal grants Turing preferential access to AMD’s latest MI300 accelerator series for neural network training clusters.
2. Turing Shifts from Nvidia H100 to AMD MI300
Following the agreement, Turing will phase out Nvidia H100 GPUs across its training infrastructure in favor of MI300 chips. This transition erodes a potential revenue stream for Nvidia in automotive AI and underscores growing competition in the high-performance GPU segment.
