REDMOND, Wash. — Microsoft has announced new computers that directly integrate the company’s artificial intelligence technology, spurring the race among tech giants to bring AI tools to the public.
Chief Executive Satya Nadella said adding computer chips designed to run AI technology to the company’s PCs and tablets will allow AI tools and features to work faster than if the technology went through a connection Internet, as most chatbots do today. Loading AI into its computers and marketing them as the best way to access AI could give the company a new edge in convincing consumers to choose a PC over one made by Apple.
