In 2014, when Lisa Su took over as CEO of Advanced Micro Devices,
AMD was on the verge of bankruptcy. Su bet hard on hardware and not
only pulled the semiconductor company back from the brink, but also
led it to surpass its historical rival, Intel, in market cap. Since
the launch of ChatGPT made high-powered chips like AMDs “sexy”
again, demand for chips has intensified exponentially, but so has
the public spotlight on the industry — including from the federal
government. In a live conversation, at the Johns Hopkins
University Bloomberg Center, as part of their inaugural Discovery
Series, Kara talks to Su about her strategy in face of the Trump
administration’s tariff and export control threats, how to
safeguard the US in the global AI race, and what she says when male
tech leaders brag about the size of their GPUs. Questions?
