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.

MX TakaTak gets Snapchat’s AR Camera Kit, here’s what it means to you

MX TakaTak, owned by Mohalla Tech, which also has ShareChat and Moj in its possession, is getting Snapchat’s augmented reality (AR) camera on its app. Snapchat’s parent company Snap has expanded its AR camera tool to more short video platforms. Earlier, ShareChat’s Moj received this AR camera kit, and now, MX TakaTak is getting it. MX TakaTak users can now use this AR camera kit for exploring different and unique filters for making better content.

Snapchat AR camera comes to MX TakaTak

It appears that Snap wants to take its AR camera features to a wide range of audiences and not just keep it limited to its Snapchat app. Also, the userbase of these India-grown short video apps is ever-expanding.

As per previous stats, Snap only had around 80 million monthly active users, while ShareChat had around 160 million monthly active users. As for MX TakaTak, it also has near about 150 million monthly active users making it another great platform to test out Snap’s AR camera kit.

Snap’s merger with these apps could cater to a more audience and allow users to stick to these apps for a longer time. The previous integration with Snap had delivered “High adoption” to users and with this new integration, the company expects creators to bring unique ideas to their short videos.

“We are sure this integration on TakaTak will also help creators bring their incredible ideas to life through innovative lenses, ” stated Amit Zunjarwad, ShareChat Cheif Product Office (via Gadgets360).

With the AR camera integration, users are expected to get Snapchat camera filters directly on the MX TakaTak app. Also, there could be a button somewhere on the screen that will directly take users to the Snapchat app, similar to what we see now in the Moj app. It is unclear, whether users will be able to use the AR camera’s Scan feature on the MX TakaTak app since it is also a part of Snapchat’s AR camera kit. But is highly unlikely that it will let users do that.
