r/coreboot on Reddit: Can I trust AMI (American Megatrends, Inc) ?
November 29, 2023 -
In general, the BIOS/UEFI manufacturer owner has the back door. Is this the same case on AMI? Because apparently it's open source
I use a desktop PC with a motherboard that is compatible with AMI
(I know AMI is not coreboot but I have no choice because AMI doesn't have the subreddit)

AMI is an IBV (independent bios vendor) just like Insyde, Phoenix, etc. They provide closed-source UEFI firmware to mainboard/system manufacturers. Their open-source offering is just a packaging of Intel's edk2 UEFI reference firmware. AFAICT, tt doesn't offer support for anything other than a handful of Intel reference boards. You cannot flash this on any actual hardware without adding support for that specific hardware, same as with coreboot

American Megatrends has been around for a very long time, the company is trustworthy. If you want to know whether or not the UEFI is stable, it probably is. But who knows with closed source shit.

Pinczakko Official Website - Pinczakko's Guide to AMI BIOS Reverse Engineering
By using the system-wide addressing scheme, system BIOS then copies the implemented PCI Expansion ROM into RAM one by one in the expansion ROM area (C000:0000h - D000:FFFFh) and execute it there until all of the PCI expansion ROM have been executed/initialized. AMI BIOS bootblock is more complicated compared to Award BIOS bootblock.
