AMD has announced its long-term CPU roadmap, including multiple generations of its Zen microarchitecture at its Advancing AI event. Much of the event was focused on the new 256-core EPYC 9996 sporting the Zen 6 architecture, as well as Venice-X, which is slated to arrive next year. But AMD also teased a Zen CPU roadmap going out to Zen 8.
"In 2028, we are going to introduce Florence," Lisa Su, chief executive of AMD, said. "Florence brings the next-gen Zen 7 cores and its leading-edge process technology. It's a new set of AI compute extensions to really ensure that we have all of the AI capability, and it supports the latest memory technologies."
