This is your laptop… on AI
TL;DR
We're now deep into developer conference season, and one of the themes so far is the relentless conviction from Big Tech companies that AI is going to change everything about how we do everything. Nvidia's Jensen Huang made that clearer than anyone this week, when he described a completely new way of using our laptops - and a completely new kind of laptop made to support it. It's all very interesting, but it raises the same question we have around so many AI products: Does anyone actually want this?
Nauti's Take
Exciting: if Nvidia and peers rethink the laptop from the ground up, it could unlock real productivity gains and new workflows in hardware that had stalled for years. The catch: much of it looks like a solution in search of a problem, and the honest question — does anyone actually want this?
— stays open. Early adopters should pay attention; everyone else can calmly wait out the first hype cycle.
