Background & analysis
At the OCP Global Summit keynote on October 12, AMD CEO Lisa Su characterized 2026 as the year of inference, driven by agentic AI workloads that are set to fuel explosive growth in the CPU market. Su disclosed that AMD has raised its CPU market projections three times over the past nine months, forecasting that the market will exceed $200 billion by 2030 with a compound annual growth rate of about 50%, a sharp rise from the roughly $20 billion market size and single-digit growth expectations from a year ago. Additionally, she noted that the data centre AI accelerator market is projected to approach $1.5 trillion by 2030. Su also announced that AMD's next-generation AI acceleration product, Helios, entered volume production and began shipping in September, with initial systems already deployed to major customers including OpenAI, Meta, Microsoft, Oracle, and Anthropic. Furthermore, AMD unveiled the Helion rack system designed for agentic AI computing at the summit, with an official rollout through ecosystem partners scheduled to begin on November 26.
