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.

Twitter now allows public appeals for suspended accounts: All you need to know

Elon Musk-run Twitter on Thursday announced that anyone can now appeal their account suspension. The move is part of the announcement last week that Twitter will take “less severe actions” against user accounts that break its rules, asking them to remove controversial tweets and move on.

Twitter users can appeal their account suspension

“Starting today, anyone can request that we review a suspended account for reinstatement under our new criteria,” said Twitter.

“We appreciate your patience as we work through a high volume of these requests,” it added.

Reinstated accounts, like all accounts on Twitter, still need to follow Twitter rules.

The company last week said it will only suspend Twitter accounts that engage in “severe or ongoing, repeat violations” of its rules.

“Going forward, we will take less severe actions, such as limiting the reach of policy-violating Tweets or asking you to remove Tweets before you can continue using your account,” the micro-blogging platform said.

Account suspension will be reserved for severe or ongoing, repeat violations of our policies, it added.

Severe violations include but are not limited to engaging in illegal content or activity, inciting or threatening violence or harm, privacy violations, platform manipulation or spam, and engaging in targeted harassment of users.

Twitter said it has been proactively reinstating previously suspended accounts. Additionally, Twitter appeals would be “evaluated under our new criteria for reinstatement”. The company has not revealed the criteria or the duration of the process for reinstating an account. However, Twitter expects to receive a “high volume” of requests and that reinstated requests are expected to “follow our rules.”

The platform further said that it will continue to work on launching features that transparently identify when we have taken enforcement actions “and expect to begin rolling these out in February”.
