Sony decided fully four years ago to develop its own AI hardware for the PS5 Pro rather than using AMD tech and the big question is why

Sony 's lead architect for its Playstation consoles, Mark Cerny , has given a deep dive into PS5 Pro's AI acceleration.
AMD , of course, is responsible for both the CPU cores and the bulk of the GPU technology in the console.
But when it comes to AI acceleration for upscaling, Sony decided to very much do its own thing.
The target was 300 TOPS of ML performance, or roughly 300 trillion operations per second .
If true, it would also mean that we likely won't see an AMD graphics chip with ML hardware until about 2027 when the upcoming RDAN4 chips are replaced with something based on AMD 's new CDNA unified architecture. Given even Intel 's first -gen Arc GPUs had ML hardware and Nvidia is about to launch its fourth generation of GPUs with ML hardware, that really is a damning indictment of AMD 's GPU technology and leaves the company nowhere in the AI upscaling race. Here's hoping that rumors are incorrect and AMD has some GPUs with ML hardware coming soon..
