AI-capable notebook PCs - defined as a notebook PC that ships with a dedicated chipset built specifically to accelerate AI computing on device (i.e. an NPU) – will represent 95% of the total notebook PC market, or 230.5 million units, shipped in 2029. As hype around generative AI has reached fever pitch, the PC market is hoping to capitalize on this interest, driving PC upgrades with promises of enhanced user experience, productivity, and security – all by the power of AI. 2024 will be a banner year for AI-capable PCs, especially in the second half of the year, which is when notebooks PCs featuring NPUs that can run 40 tera operations per second (TOPS) are expected to make their market debut.
