AMD to invest $400 million in India by 2028: Here’s what we know

US chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices said on Friday it will invest around $400 million in India over the next five years and will build its largest design center in the tech hub of Bengaluru. AMD’s announcement was made by its Chief Technology Officer Mark Papermaster at an annual semiconductor conference that started Friday in Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s home state of Gujarat. Other speakers at the flagship event include Foxconn Chairman Young Liu and Micron CEO Sanjay Mehrotra. Despite being a late entrant, the Modi government has been courting investments into India’s nascent chip sector to establish its credentials as a chipmaking hub. AMD said it will open its new design centre campus in Bengaluru by end of this year and create 3,000 new engineering roles within five years. “Our India teams will continue to play a pivotal role in delivering the high-performance and adaptive solutions that support AMD customers worldwide,” Papermaster said.

Instagram replaces Explore with Reels tab on mobile in India

Instagram users in India are getting the Reels tab in a new location this week. Before this, you had to dig deep to find the Reels option on the mobile app. But now, you can just click on the Reels option which has replaced the Explore tab. The option was already available on iOS for past few weeks. And now it’s available for millions of Android phone users in the country as well.

To use Reels on Instagram, head over to the bottom of the screen, where you have the Home and Profile setting. Over there, you have the Explore tab in the form of a magnifying glass. But now you will see the Reels icon replacing it. By clicking on this icon you will be redirected to the main page of Reels.

This change is vital for better engagement and reach for Reels. After all, this feature was introduced on Instagram to take advantage of the TikTok ban in India. The company also states that Reels is the future of entertainment and that it will cover everyone from big media companies to individual content creators. India is the fourth country to get the feature after Brazil, Germany, and France.

Instagram Reels: How it works?

Instagram Reels will let users create short format videos which by default will be available to share with Instagram’s Explore tab. However, users will also have the option to share their videos directly to their own stories and feed. Instagram had talked about a dedicated space of Reels on the main feed, and this week’s update is offering the users just that.

The initial response to Reels has been underwhelming and Instagram will be hoping that easier access to the feature changes its appeal to the users in the country. Earlier the option was available for just iOS users, now even Android users get the design change.
