Jeremy has been writing about technology and PCs since the 90nm Netburst era (Google it!) and enjoys nothing more than a serious dissertation on the finer points of monitor input lag and overshoot followed by a forensic examination of advanced lithography. Or maybe he just likes machines that go “ping!” He also has a thing for tennis and cars.
the AI performance of the NPUs in upcoming CPUs ? Well, whaddya know, Nvidia has spotted that, too.), Nvidia has been bigging up the AI processing chops of its GPUs, apparently dismissing the AI-accelerating NPUs in upcoming AMD, Intel, Apple and Qualcomm chips as"basic".
Nvidia helpfully provides a list of AI-related advantages its"Premium" GPUs have over those awful"Basic" NPUs. For instance, Nvidia reckons they won't be capable of AI video generation or 3D de-noising, but its GPUs will. Or in gaming the NPUs won't be able to do AI frame generation, ray reconstruction or AI in-game characters. Its GPUs will., the RTX 4050 mobile GPU and the Apple Macbook Pro M3 Max, which has a dedicated NPU.
On the other hand, it is a bit preposterous to have a laptop with a 45 TOPS NPU qualify as an"AI PC" but another laptop with 686 TOPS's worth of AI processing not count.
