I hope those dedicated AI cores on the 7000 series get put to good use with this upcoming announcement.

There are no dedicated AI cores in RDNA3 (RX 7000)

AMD specifically call them "AI accelerators". They schedule the matrix computations to be calculated by the texture units on the card using WMMA instructions

This is the same technique they use for ray tracing. They don't have dedicated cores. The ray bounces are traced by texture units. That's why AMD is behind Nvidia in RT

It saves them money on die size

Texture units are fixed function.
