AMD reported a 50% revenue increase to $11.5 billion in Q2, driven by booming AI-focused data center sales, with high margins and strong commercial GPU adoption. Intel posted higher revenue at $16.1 billion, its best growth in 15 years, but reported an $11 billion net loss due to foundry costs and a large CHIPS Act charge. AMD is seen as the current AI design leader with faster growth and profitability, while Intel is in a costly turnaround phase investing heavily in manufacturing to catch up. Investors will watch AMD's AI GPU shipments and Intel's foundry progress as key indicators for future performance.
