This presentation features recent findings from an in-depth study by Futurum Research on AI PCs and the results that point to a shift in the enterprise end user compute space. AI PCs contain dedicated neural processing units (NPUs) that help with GenAI, machine learning, and deep learning workloads. AI PCs use NPUs and GPUs together.
The study surveyed 852 enterprise decision makers globally. It found that AI PCs in the laptop form factor lead the market with nearly 70% market share. AI PCs enable hybrid AI with both local and cloud processing options. They reduce the dependency on cloud, especially for highly secure workloads. One of the biggest drivers for AI PC adoption is the pending end-of-life for Windows 10, with users looking to move to Windows 11 on new supported hardware that includes AI PC features.
AI PCs are key edge devices that provide high performance Wi-Fi 7 chipsets, low latency and great power efficiency, as well as enhanced security to prevent user exposure. There is also a growing inclusion of 5G-enabled connectivity on AI PC laptops, especially in sectors where security is paramount.
The presentation wraps with with a discussion of where AI PC technology is headed, such as the rise of agents AI, increased thermal management, and even the future of self diagnosing, self healing computers.
