Nvidia and HP CEOs speak
According to HP CEO Enrique Lores, AI is a game-changing advancement for PCs, who also revealed that HP will launch the broadest range of AI workstations and PCs in the market.
Lores stated in a keynote address that the new systems would offer increased speed and security while reducing costs and energy compared to running their AI work in the cloud.
Several mobile AI workstations powered by NVIDIA RTX Ada Generation GPUs are available with the new HP ZBooks.
Introducing the NVIDIA Ada Lovelace architecture powering GeForce RTX 40 Series GPUs:
✔️ New SMs provide up to 2x perf and power efficiency
✔️ 4th Gen Tensor Cores with up to 2x AI perf
✔️ 3rd Gen RT Cores with up to 2x ray tracing perf#BeyondFast 👉 https://t.co/0tRGB0WTvD pic.twitter.com/adFeVE5ng4— NVIDIA GeForce (@NVIDIAGeForce) September 20, 2022
Users can run generative AI apps and tools on the go with entry-level systems when paired with the NVIDIA RTX 500 Ada Generation Laptop GPU. Additionally, the high-end models pack the RTX 5000 to deliver up to 682 TOPS. This enables them to create and run LLMs locally, using retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) to connect to their content for personalised and private results.
The new workstations have access to NVIDIA’s full-stack AI platform, which includes tools for accelerating the data science required for generative AI. The Z by HP AI Studio platform for the systems, created with NVIDIA, has links to NVIDIA NGC, a GPU-accelerated AI and data science applications library. NVIDIA NeMo, a framework for creating, modifying, and implementing generative AI models, is included with NGC.
In addition, HP and NVIDIA announced that NVIDIA CUDA-X libraries will be integrated with the systems to turbocharge the processing and data preparation fundamental for generative AI.
Microsoft’s vision for AI-infused PC
According to Nadella, Microsoft’s PC strategy centres on incorporating Al as a guiding principle and conceiving them as “Copilot PCs” meant to empower users and boost productivity. The CEO was upbeat about the revolutionary potential of Generative Al (GenAl), seeing it as a way to advance information accessibility beyond what is currently possible by putting expertise at users’ fingertips.
“What Al will do is it will put expertise at our fingertips,” Nadella said, evoking a speech from Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates in 1993 and highlighting the significant influence Al could have on knowledge accessibility.
Nadella expressed excitement, but caution was advised in the broad adoption of technology, highlighting the significance of responsible diffusion.
He emphasized the need to consider possible repercussions while calling for a responsible social conversation about the development and application of Al, even as he acknowledged the undeniable advantages of innovations like GenAI. Satya Nadella’s call for responsible innovation rings accurate as a vital reminder of the moral considerations that must accompany technological progress as the tech industry eagerly explores the limitless possibilities of Al.
