It's a political problem. Good software engineers are paid more than good hardware engineers, but AMD management is unwilling to pay up to bring on good software engineers because then they'd also need to pay their hardware engineers more, otherwise the hardware engineers would be unsatisfied. If you check NVidia salaries online you'll see NVidia pays significantly more than AMD for both hardware and software engineers; it's a classic case of AMD management being penny-wise, pound-foolish.

This is quite possibly also why Boeing is having issues.
If they paid everyone $1M/year salaries maybe more people would consider going into aerospace engineering.
Right now though Boeing's starting salaries aren't that much higher than what an Uber driver in the bay area makes.
