AI-enabled Windows computers are a new generation of computers that leverage artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance user experience. These computers are equipped with specialized hardware and software to handle AI and machine learning tasks efficiently. They are designed to supercharge productivity, unleash creativity, and transform the way we work.
A Neural Processing Unit (NPU) is a specialized hardware accelerator designed for AI and machine learning (ML) tasks. NPUs are optimized to handle the complex computations required by deep learning algorithms. This optimization makes NPUs incredibly efficient at processing AI tasks, such as natural language processing, image analysis, and more. The NPU is integrated into the CPU, and one measure of NPU performance is Tera Operations per Second (TOPs).
TOPs stands for Tera Operations per Second. TOPs measures computational speed for NPUs. Different NPUs can have varying TOPs specifications. Certain AI-enabled software may require a minimum TOPs capacity for optimal performance. Therefore, it is recommended to check the software requirements before use.
AI workloads, when offloaded to the NPU, improve overall device performance, and extended battery life. A Dell computer with an Intel Core Ultra processor combines the benefits of the NPU, offloading capabilities like auto-framing, background blur, and eye-tracking. The NPU gives workers up to 38% more battery life adding valuable working time into days packed with Zoom calls.
The NPU is used in Windows to accelerate AI tasks and improve the user experience. Windows Studio Effects leverages the NPU in features including:
Many of these AI features exist in tools that we use today (Teams, Zoom, Dell Optimizer, and others). These advanced AI enabled effects and machine learning algorithms are excellent and they allow you to present yourself in the best possible light in video conferences.
