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.

Google rolls out new updates to its Play Store: Check whats new here

Google has rolled out version 36.3.12 of its Play Store for Android devices recently. While the company has not provided a changelog with the update, visible changes highlight the improvements that have been made to the app.

The new update is compatible with Android version 5 and above. The update will download and install automatically in the background, but if any user wants to download it manually, they can download and install the APK file. The file size will vary depending on the device.

Google Play Store has got one significant visual change where blue accents have replaced the old green throughout the app. This change suggests a possible move away from the partial dynamic colour and Material You integration, which was earlier available only on the home screen. A test build from March 2023 showed blue accents, which suggested that the company is planning to launch full dynamic colour support.

Play Store previously received new updates in the month of June, where Google made improvements in three areas of the app. In the June update, the company made changes to search results and ad formats where it optimised app-specific searches for an efficient browsing experience and reduced the loading latency of the ads. These changes resulted in smoother navigation.

In addition to this, user reviews, in the June update, got a major improvement where critical information in certain search results was highlighted. They helped users in making informed decisions while downloading apps.

Google keeps updating the Google Play Store to ensure app security, user experience, and bug fixes. Two months ago, Google added a feature that lets users delete their data from certain apps, as part of its pledge to user data privacy.

The new Google Play Store update brings visual changes with blue accents, improves previous optimisations, and focuses on user privacy and security. These updates make browsing better for Android users.

Meanwhile, India’s popular fintech, PhonePe, is developing its own app store for Android users. This app store will be designed to offer hyper-localised services based on customer context. The company will provide multilingual solutions to app developers to assist them in high-quality user acquisition.

Last year, PhonePe acquired Bengaluru-based IndusOS, which is an app store maker that served customers through partnerships with smartphone vendors.

PhonePe’s app store will offer a “premiere experience for millions of users with high-quality advertisements and custom targeting,” support for 12 languages and 24×7 live chat, a document from the company said.
