Wild, and to think they both share the same heir the moment they adopt me.

"Technically, Lisa Su’s grandfather is Jen-Hsun Huang’s uncle. They are not exactly niece and uncle, but close relatives."

So they are "1st cousins once removed".

Headline: he's her uncle!

Article: he's actually not her uncle we just made that up!

Healthy competition in the family... or probably setting things up for a merger one day...

AMD really partners more with Intel than NVIDIA at this point. I think Intel buying AMD is much more likely than merging with NVIDIA.

Intel can't buy AMD, because they don't want to lose their hold on x86, and if AMD disappear regulators won't buy the pretend open competition anymore.

That's the reason they won't do it anyway, just like they refused to let nVidia make x86 chips (pushing them to ARM and making x86 lose another possible foothold, a bad long term choices)

They are both from Tainan, Taiwan (a city in the south part of Taiwan) and both immigrated to the US at around the same time.
