The introduction of AI PCs in 2024, particularly with Microsoft’s Copilot+, signifies a pivotal change in the laptop landscape, emphasizing local AI processing capabilities.
Microsoft's Copilot+ initiative set the standard for AI performance on devices, ensuring at least 16GB RAM and an NPU capable of 40 TOPS for effective local AI computations.
The earlier AI PCs with underutilized NPUs failed to gain traction due to reliance on cloud computing for AI tasks rather than leveraging local processing capabilities.
With the Copilot+ PCs, Microsoft not only integrated AI features in Windows 11 but ensured devices were optimized for running third-party applications with robust local AI support.
