Clearly you've experienced some kind of personality clash and/or a battle of egos. I can't fault you for holding a low opinion of him as a result, but I'm unimpressed with personal beefs being used as evidence to impeach credibility.
My point is as I wrote in both posts. George was able to demonstrate evidence of poor engineering which "reflected poorly on AMD". From this I could form my own conclusion that AMD aren't in an engineering position to become "serious contenders in AI".
The poor software engineering evident on consumer cards is an indictment of AMD engineers, and the theoretical possibility for their enterprise products to have well engineered firmware wouldn't alleviate this indictment. If anything it makes AMD look insidious or incompetent.
Except that isn't the point you said...
"there's no hope of them becoming serious contenders in AI without some major changes in AMD's priorities"
My point in showing you (not dragging you into) the drama, is to tell you that George is not a credible witness for your beliefs.
