afaict they’re computers with a GPU that has some hardware dedicated to the kind of matrix multiplication common in inference in current neural networks. pure marketing BS because most GPUs come with that these days, and some will still not he powerful enough to be useful
This comment is the most importantly one in this thread. Laptops already had GPUs. Does the copilot button actually result in you conversing with an LLM locally or is inference done in the cloud? If the latter, it’s even more useless.
WTF is an AI computer? Is that some marketing bullshit?

@Matriks404 @dgerard got it in one! It’s MS’s marketing campaign for PCs with a certain amount of “AI” FLOPS
IDK if the double pun was intended, but a FLOPS is a measurement of how many (floating point) operations can a computer make per second
“Y2k ready” vibes.
Yes.
