That includes a recently announced partnership with Microsoft (MSFT). The tech giant has ordered Helios systems from AMD, which are expected to be delivered in the second half of 2026. This was a major announcement for AMD, and Su said it marked "an important milestone as we deliver leadership compute solutions to Azure customers and scale the next generation of AI infrastructure together." ## **AMD's Smart Score Ahead of Advancing AI 2026** Looking at AMD's Smart Score, the company is heading into its Advancing AI 2026 with mixed opinions.
