  "account": "Lisa Su, CEO of Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), is also the cousin of former rival Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, who recently resigned. Su was born in Taiwan and moved to the United States with her family when she was three years old. She grew up in Queens, New York, and attended The Bronx High School of Science. Su earned her undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral degrees from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in electrical engineering. Throughout her career, Su held various roles at Texas Instruments, IBM, and Freescale Semiconductor before joining AMD in 2012 as the general manager of Global Business Units. Under her leadership, AMD transformed from a struggling company to a global powerhouse, with a market value of over $950 billion as of Thursday. AMD's success can be attributed to Su's strategic decisions, such as focusing on high-end chips for the cloud, data centers, and consoles, which led to the development of the Ryzen CPUs and EPYC server processors.",
