AI PCs Must Define a New Era of Personal Computing

The introduction of the neural processing unit (NPU), a dedicated processor for AI-related tasks, has created an opportunity for AI PCs to shift from a niche use case to a product that can be consumed by the masses in both consumer and commercial users.

Despite this new potential, hurdles exist in AI PCs, spurring a new wave of PC purchasing. First, buyers need significant education on what an AI PC is, what it can be used for and how they stand to benefit from purchasing one. Second, the ISV ecosystem needs to catch up to the pace of hardware innovation and create more compelling use cases that leverage the NPU.
