💻🤝📱 AMD and OpenAI announce strategic partnership to deploy 6 gigawatts of AMD GPUs

AMD and OpenAI today announced a 6 gigawatt agreement to power OpenAI’s next-generation AI infrastructure across multiple generations of AMD Instinct GPUs. The first 1 gigawatt deployment of AMD Instinct MI450 GPUs is set to begin in the second half of 2026.

AMD’s strong leadership in high-performance computing systems and OpenAI's pioneering research and advancements in generative AI places the two companies at the forefront of this important and pivotal time for AI.

Under this definitive agreement, OpenAI will work with AMD as a core strategic compute partner to drive large-scale deployments of AMD technology starting with the AMD Instinct MI450 series and rack-scale AI solutions, and extending to future generations. By sharing technical expertise to optimize their product roadmaps, AMD and OpenAI are deepening their multi-generational hardware and software collaboration that began with the MI300X and continued with the MI350X series. This partnership creates a true win-win for both companies, enabling very large-scale AI deployments and advancing the entire ecosystem.

As part of the agreement, to further align strategic interests, AMD has issued OpenAI a warrant for up to 160 million shares of AMD common stock, structured to vest as specific milestones are achieved. The first tranche vests with the initial 1 gigawatt deployment, with additional tranches vesting as purchases scale up to 6 gigawatts. Vesting is further tied to AMD achieving certain share-price targets and to OpenAI achieving the technical and commercial milestones required to enable AMD deployments at scale.

🇮🇱⚡️ — NEW: Israel’s Foreign Ministry has allocated 545 million shekels ($145 million) for 2025 under “Project 545,” aimed at strengthening pro-Israel messaging through AI and U.S. social media platforms, according to Israeli ynet.

➡️ The program includes a $6 million contract with Clock Tower X LLC, run by Brad Parscale, former campaign manager for Donald Trump, to conduct digital campaigns primarily targeting Gen Z audiences on TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram.

➡️ According to newly filed documents, the effort seeks to “game algorithms” and influence AI systems such as ChatGPT and Google’s Gemini by saturating data sources with pro-Israel content.

🇺🇸 The Atlanta Fed’s GDPNow says the U.S. is growing at +3.8%.

But Moody’s Analytics finds 22 states + D.C. already in recession, from Washington to Georgia to Massachusetts.

So... are we booming, or breaking?

Moody’s chief economist Mark Zandi says the U.S. is “on the precipice” of a damaging contraction.

Job losses are mounting in states tied to manufacturing, farming, and transport, while high-cost states like Georgia are now seeing population pullbacks.

Even California and New York are “treading water.”

GDP paints one picture - broad averages lifted by consumer spending and services.

But the micro data tell another story...goods-producing regions are cracking.

In past cycles, state-level recessions often lead national ones.

The fissures start small… until real cracks appear

Zandi blames policy uncertainty: tariffs, job cuts, and stalled labor growth.

Others say the slowdown’s overhyped.

Either way, 22 recessions inside one economy isn’t a "no landing"...it’s a warning.
