AMD claims to have reached a cooperation with Weilai Ma Lin: Please delete if there is no cooperation

According to news on June 8, AMD China issued a document on June 6 saying that its EPYC series processors will enable NIO’s HPC platform to provide powerful computing power for the efficient operation of high-performance simulation applications.

Subsequently, Ma Lin, senior director of corporate communications at Weilai, forwarded the Weibo and said that there was no cooperation with AMD, and asked AMD to delete the Weibo.

AMD's official website shows that the EPYC series processors used by NIO this time are AMD's latest data center CPU with 3D chip stacking in the world. The processor is based on the "Zen 3" core architecture, which further expands the third-generation EPYC processor. series of products.

In this collaboration, NIO will use AMD's EPYC (Electronic Dragon) series processors in its high-performance computing platform to help accelerate AI deep learning training, save costs and shorten product development cycles.

It is worth noting that AMD also pointed out that the chip will only be used for NIO's automotive research and development, and will not be used in automotive production or automotive platforms.

AMD says the EPYC processor can help in CAE simulation, design and testing such as CFD fluid mechanics, structural simulation, crash simulation, and more."With the help of AMD EPYC, the NIO HPC platform can handle about 240 simulation tasks per day, a year-on-year increase of 50%. The server procurement cost will be reduced by 30-40% year-on-year, and the TCO savings in the next 3-5 years are expected to exceed 50% Further shorten the vehicle R&D cycle, bring new vehicles to market faster, drive business growth, and navigate the future."

The following is the original content of Ma Lin's response:

Weilai has not cooperated with AMD, nor has it discussed cooperation at present, nor authorized AMD to carry out this communication.AMD's move is very regrettable.After negotiation, AMD only deleted the news on the official website, and the marketing activities on Weibo still exist.Please AMD delete this tweet.
