Hi Nico, when someone finds a vulnerability at Intel, people do a good digging for a similar vulnerability at AMD. And so far, if I haven't missed something, it has been discovered that AMD shares only a few variants of Spectre together with Intel, while all the other vulns seem to be Intel-specific. Judging by the lack of other findings, I believe that AMD is more secure - perhaps because they haven't used such a "speedhacks"...
