The partnership is set to deliver advanced automation capabilities, spanning software development, testing, and modernization. Such developments are expected to allow companies to adopt AI more systematically and securely.

The deal, which may generate tens of billions of dollars in annual revenue, also includes provisions for OpenAI to acquire up to a 10% stake in AMD, underscoring the intensifying competition and rapid expansion within the global AI industry.
