Probably makes sense as a business decision.

In my opinion, I would also like for AMD to invest in ML tooling while they have the cash.

I hope one day Pytorch, XLA, Glow would have native AMDGPU support, and I will be able to buy a couple Radeon 6000 series cards, undervolt them and make a good ML box.

I think AMD gpus on TSMC 7nm, then maybe even 5nm, will have the best performance or watt. Even though they might be 10% or 20% slower than the alternative. For me performance per watt and dollar is more important.

Anyway, it's sad that they couldn't make a 5 to 10 people (I might be too optimistic) engineering team that would make their product relevant in this market.
