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.

WhatsApp to let admins manage Communities better with home

WhatsApp has long said to be working on a Community feature. Over the span of past few months, the messaging app has refined this feature by adding the ability to add groups to Community. Now, word is that WhatsApp has refined this feature further by adding a Home to Community.

For the uninitiated, a Community is a space within WhatsApp that will house several groups. These groups can include existing groups on WhatsApp or new groups that are created especially for a Community. Users will have to be invited to a Community via a link or a QR code which will be shared by the admin publicly or privately. WABetaInfo, in an earlier post noted that, “when you join a community, it does not necessarily mean you can immediately send messages to all groups of the community.”

Furthermore, communities will give admins more control over the groups under them. Admins will be able to send messages in the group chats among other things. For instance, a teacher can create a community with students from various classes clubbed in groups based on them.

Now, the blog site reports that the Meta-owned messaging app is working on a ‘Home’ functionality that will house all the groups that are housed inside a particular community. This new functionality will act as a one stop destination for the admins to manage all the groups within their communities. The screenshot shared by the publication shows that the admins will also be able to set and enforce general rule-set pertaining to a community.

“Community Home is a new WhatsApp section and it contains all groups linked to a certain WhatsApp community…Users will be also able to manage the groups by certain options that would help group admins to manage their WhatsApp groups better,” the blog site noted.

As far as availability is concerned, this feature is under development and it will be available in WhatsApp’s Android and iOS-based apps soon.

Separately, the blog site noted that WhatsApp has added two new languages to its platform – Amharic and Somali. With this, WhatsApp now supports more than 40 languages.
