someone made a somewhat plausible explanation of it on hardware
"Some clown on Twitter pointed to an Intel patent and its reference of AMD diagrams and started stirring crap.
But that person didn't understand how patent filings are written, and neither did Ian Cutress (or the others who jumped on the Twitter panic train). People started flailing their arms about until someone told them that that's how patent filings are done. They use language and diagrams, often copy-pastad from various sources, to describe a thing or problem, then describe what they're doing and make their case for why it's unique and patentable in that context.
Then the clown on Twitter who started this tried to come out and say he knew it all along and that this was a "social experiment"."
It seems the AMD sub-reddit has yet to realized what has just happened. If anyone has a reddit account, feel free to inform them.

It is not news I would expect them to take lightly.
