Key Features of Copilot+ PCs:
- A New AI Era: Copilot+ PCs are the fastest and most intelligent Windows PCs ever created. Featuring advanced Neural Processing Units (NPUs) capable of performing over 40 trillion operations per second, these PCs set a new benchmark for speed and efficiency. The Neural Processing Unit (NPU) is a third processor in the computer designed to process large amounts of data in parallel, performing trillions of operations per second. It excels at providing lightning fast, high bandwidth AI in real-time and frees your CPU and GPU up for other tasks
- NPUs are built for intensive workloads that otherwise would deplete CPU and GPU performance. This uniquely enables us to offload our next gen AI features to the NPU without sacrificing overall performance, battery life, or thermals of the device.
- NPU performance is measured by TOPS, or trillions of operations per second. Copilot+ PCs have 40+ TOPs, making them the most powerful NPUs on the market with remarkable efficiency in handling AI tasks. This is particularly crucial for a notebook PC running on battery.
AI-Driven Features: The exclusive Windows 11 on Copilot+ PCs includes:
- Cocreator: An AI tool that allows users to sketch and create images using text prompts directly in Paint.
- Image Creator: Generate customized images and apply artistic styles to existing photos using AI-powered edits.
- Live Captions: Instantly translate any video or audio content from 44 languages into English.
