AMD today announced a roadmap of near- and mid-term computing solutions that harness the best characteristics of both the x86 and ARM® ecosystems, called “ambidextrous computing.” The cornerstone of this roadmap is the announcement of AMD’s 64-bit ARM architecture license for the development of custom high-performance cores for high-growth markets. Today’s announcement also provides a forward-looking glimpse into AMD’s development plans to deliver truly unmatched ambidextrous computing and graphics performance using a shared, flexible infrastructure to enable its customers to blaze new paths of innovation for the embedded, server and client markets as well as semi-custom solutions.
 
...as a leftie who is constantly battling 'ergonomic' crap made only for right-handed people, I find their use of the term 'ambidextrous' misleading.
 
So do they consider Left ARM and Right x86? Is it possible to to execute ARM code from within x86 code to run off the ARM half? Is ARM-X86 as big as x86-64 or is it more like x86+GPU?
