AI agents shift compute demand toward CPUs and memory much faster than consensus models. The GPU-to-CPU ratio went from 4:1 on H100 to 2:1 on GB200 and GB300, and could reach 1:1 as agents add orchestration, API calls, security, sandboxes and long-running state. Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince says one agent per US knowledge worker would use about half of global CPU capacity. AMD, Intel, Arm, Qualcomm and Cloudflare win directly, Nvidia still wins, and Micron gains from both HBM and CPU memory. x.comÂ
