The artificial intelligence (AI) has become the new star in the tech firmament. The business is big and promising, and we have only seen the first tip of the icebergIt is true that until now, in most cases, artificial intelligence is used in the form of service through an app or a websiteBut that is starting to change.
During an event in The Angelslast month, AMD shared some remarkable data. Only in 2023 They were generated 15 billion images with different AI services and applications. In addition, according to the company, There are 314 million artificial intelligence users in the worldAI offers services to different industries and markets such as gaming, robotics, computing, connectivity, cars, medicine and connectivity.
With this scenario, processors for computers with artificial intelligence appear on the horizon through a new type of chip, the NPU (neural processing unitfor its acronym in English). The NPU works together with the CPU (he conventional microprocessor general purpose) and, in certain processors, together with the graphics processor (o GPU).
So much Intel as AMD (to name just two of the companies that manufacture the electronic brains of personal computers; Apple is another key player) are already in the race. Intel, for example, recently launched its new Core Ultra with built-in artificial intelligence. AMD’s response was the family Ryzen 8000the first to put a NPU on desktop computers.
Now the company showed in Los Angeles, United States, the new Ryzen AI Serie 300based on the Zen 5 architecture what are you offering Native AI on LaptopsFor this launch AMD relied on its usual partners such as Asus, Lenovo, MSI y HPwhich showed the tasks that the new chips can perform.
The top of the range of the series is the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370that comes with 12 cores (and 24 threads) and can work at 5,1 GHz (5.1 billion cycles per second). This new electronic brain also includes a powerful GPU that handles graphics, Radeon 890M.
The new segment of laptops with artificial intelligence seems to have adopted a name from Microsoft: Copilot+PCThese laptops offer full compatibility with Copilot+, Windows 11dozens of applications and a promising future with the arrival of hundreds of programs and new operating systems. Some of the applications that can already take advantage of the NPU are: Teams, Zoom y Meetwhich allow to apply Advanced blur and background effects, face tracking, eye contact with the interlocutor y Active noise cancellation on microphone.

Also with photography programs, such as Photoshopand 3D design, such as Blenderas well as new applications such as the Story Cube from Asus, which allows you to organize multimedia content by identifying people and pets natively and locally (just like it does Google Photos in the cloud). They are also Amuse 2.0which transforms any captured photograph into a drawing with different styles, as well as HP AI Companion, Acer LiveArt y Stable Diffusion XLa popular image generator. As for the notebook models that could be tested during the event, there were the new Vivobook S14, S16, ProArt P16, ProArt PX13, Zenbook S16, Zephyrus H16, TUF A16 y TUF A14all with the new processors Ryzen AI Serie 300.
The event also showcased the new family of processors for desktop computers, the Ryzen Serie 9000which had been presented a month ago in Computex. He Ryzen 9950Xwhich AMD claims is the most powerful consumer processor to date, was in various configurations on the demo floor and compared (by AMD) to the Core i9 14900K de Intel. Among the comparisons with video games, a 22% performance improvement in the title was highlighted Horizon Zero Dawn13% in Cyberpunk 2077 and 8% in Hitman 3.
The Ryzen 9000 processor family is completed with the Ryzen 9900X, Ryzen 7 9700X y Ryzen 5 9600X. All support memories RAM DDR 5 a 8000 MHz, overclocking extreme, greater energy efficiency than the previous generation, and a long-term compatible and upgradeable platform.
