(Image credit: Future)Īll of that is helpful, but I can already see how it leads me down a path of understanding my PC less and less.

The first Meteor Lake laptops are here, and lots more are coming in 2024. We know because we've already spent some time with the first Meteor Lake laptops, including my Acer Swift Go 14 hands-on, and a lot of the early features that tap the power of these new AI-minded chips do useful things like generate art and text for you, answer questions, find Windows 11 system settings, and summarize documents.

But it's also going to lead to a glut of 'AI' features rolling out across PC hardware and software over the next few years, and the defining characteristic of that stuff is that it takes control away from you.ĭon't get me wrong, it does so in ways that are meant to make your life easier. Intel's finally catching up to AMD and Apple by building NPUs into its chips, and they'll make Windows and Mac PCs more efficient at getting work done. These chips have a built-in NPU (Neural Processing Unit) that's very similar to the Neural Engine built into the Apple silicon (like the Apple M3 chip) which powers the best MacBooks, and developers are going to spend the next few years designing and hyping 'AI' experiences which tap the power of these new NPUs.Īnd hey, that's going to be great in the long run. That's because Microsoft and its developer partners are all burning the midnight oil to build as many 'AI' features into software as possible, in order to take advantage of the fact that AI laptops are on sale now packing the latest Intel Meteor Lake chips. With the current version of Windows guaranteed to be supported through 2025 it seems unlikely we'll see a new version as soon as next year, but it's definitely possible Microsoft might rush Windows 12 out the door as soon as 2024 in order to take advantage of the 'AI PC' hype cycle that's already started. I think a lot of people are going to be spending the next few years fuming about how briefly/how long Microsoft waited (depending on your POV) between launching Windows 12 vs Windows 11 in 2021.
