She could admit that they fell behind on this one and really need to focus on closing the gap now. But instead she says it's all business as usual, which assures me that I won't give their hardware another shot for quite a while.
I wouldn't blame that on the CEO, that's just regular media training and it's their job is to keep the stock market happy.
Companies really only admit to failure if there's no other option and the pressure is too high ("Antenna gate" and others come to mind).
Well, while they desperately try to keep shareholders happy instead of developers, Nvidia racks in trillions in market cap. But I agree in the sense that thinking ahead further than the next quarter is not a great strength of most publicly traded companies.
Just because something was said in public to some interviewer doesn't mean they are thinking exactly the same internally.

The investors already know AMD's SW is bad. Now they know not to trust AMD's CEO.
