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.

Apple seeks court to stay part of the Epic Games lawsuit injunction

In the latest set of events with the ongoing Apple and Epic Games lawsuit, the Cupertino tech company has told the court it is complying with one part of an injunction it received following the Epic Games App Store trial, as the company attempts to delay implementing other elements of the ruling.

Following the September ruling by US District Court Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers in the Epic-Apple lawsuit, Apple appealed and asked for a stay on the injunction in early October, as per AppleInsider. In a new filing to the court, Apple said it is done some of what the court asked, but still wants the rest of it put on hold.

These changes have included updating the anti-steering provisions in its developer guidelines, providing more flexibility in contacting users and in advertising to users of alternative payment methods. However, Apple has yet to change rules relating to external linking or metadata buttons for external payment mechanisms.

The Friday court filing seen by iMore mentions that Apple has complied with part of the injunction, and reiterated it has already appealed to stay the remainder of the injunction.

According to Apple, “the immediate implementation of that aspect of the injunction would upset the integrity of the iOS ecosystem”.

Apple reckons that since the court said that Apple’s requirements for making users use in-app purchases for selling digital content were OK, eliminating restrictions on in-app messaging would effectively work against it. Removing the limits would “force Apple to make its intellectual property available without compensation, and lessen the security and privacy afforded to customers”.

It is further claimed that the injunction wouldn’t make it through a review, since Epic Games doesn’t have any standing to secure or enforce an injunction due to a lack of a developer account and no products in the App Store.
