In another news, hopefully wrong ones, AMD may be about to make a bad step:

AMD will reportedly stop supporting Windows 10 starting with its new Strix Point APUs and you can all blame AI for that

According to a post on Weibo (via WCCFTech) by someone reportedly affiliated with Lenovo China, AMD is not going to be providing any Windows 10 drivers for its new chips, starting with the upcoming Strix Point APUs. That will effectively cut AMD processor support for the popular old operating system around a year before Microsoft itself ends Windows 10 life support.

"Win10 enthusiasts please note that starting from Strix Point, AMD will not provide Win10 drivers," reads the post, finishing with a sad panda emoji. 

Just to paint a picture of the number of "Win10 enthusiasts" out there, it's estimated that Windows 10 currently has a global market share of around 69% in terms of desktop operating systems, with Windows 11 dropping down to around 27%.

If true, it's likely a pressure move from MSoft to push users to Win 11 and its AI crap, but I really hope it's a misunderstanding... tho that would explain the lack of an NCU on t he desktops parts Jizz posted last week. That way AMD wouldn't need to drop Win 10 support.
