Sony and Microsoft don't need to interact with AMD's software, they just use the hardware. Just see that Sony made its own upscaling software via ML and even created hardware with several pieces of RDNA architectures, so much so that they called it RDNA 2X (RDNA 2 (compute) + WMMA from RDNA 3 and RT from RDNA 4).

That's the entire point of AMD partnering with larger companies, rather than going all-in with consumers and small startups at this point in time.
