Intel’s Robert Hallock: The Rise of AI PCs
Robert Hallock, VP and GM at Intel, joins us for a deep dive into the rise of AI PCs and why they’re more than just a buzzword. We unpack how new hardware accelerators are making smarter, faster, and more private computing possible, and why local, offline AI is about to become as essential as graphics in tomorrow’s laptops. Robert explains Intel’s ecosystem strategy, the real differences between CPUs, GPUs, and NPUs, and what it will take for AI features to reach everyone, not just creative pros but everyday users.
