That "bad leadership" dug AMD out of hole and transformed the company into a behemoth. From under $2 a share to around $250 in eight years. I'll invest in that kind of bad leadership all day everyday.
AMD's driver/software woes compared to nVidia make more sense when you realize they barely made it here at all.
AMD should by all rights be a strong competitor to NVIDIA with a big chunk of the AI market. They have nearly nothing. The buck should stop at the top, but with AMD it doesn't.
what OP is saying is that after a point it doesn't matter how good your HW is if your SW stack is bad.
