GIGABYTE’s AI-powered innovations enable users and businesses to thrive in a digital world.
Artificial intelligence (AI) has evolved from a specialized technology to a disruptive force reshaping businesses and industries. By 2027, the global market for AI-related products, including hardware and services, is expected to reach nearly $1 trillion, according to Bain & Co. The report projects annual growth of between 40% and 55%, driven by the expansion of applications. of AI in all sectors.
At the same time, the market for AI-powered personal computers (PCs) is transforming, with Gartner estimating that by the end of 2025, 43% of all PCs shipped will have AI capabilities, compared to just 17% in 2024.
Pioneer of the future of AI-driven consumer PCs
Recognizing the transformative power of AI, GIGABYTE is strategically positioning itself as a pioneer in the field. In October 2023, GIGABYTE, as part of its broader “Improve Your Life” mission, unveiled its strategic framework for AI. The framework presents a blueprint for GIGABYTE’s direction in the future of the AI-driven consumer PC market. This framework is built on three fundamental pillars: providing a comprehensive AI operating platform that supports comprehensive IT applications; improve product performance through AI-driven design that optimizes key parameters; and create a seamless AI experience by engaging with industry leaders in the AI ecosystem.
Based on these concepts, GIGABYTE continues to expand its AI technology into the end-user market, as well as new offerings. These include GIGABYTE AI gaming laptop, which is ahead of the market trend by adopting Microsoft Copilot Hotkey and proprietary AI Nexus technology, as well as AI TOP, a local AI training solution revolutionary computer launched this year.
GIGABYTE started 2024 on a high note by showcasing its AI gaming laptops at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, allowing gamers to explore the new world of AI-powered gaming. Besides the Copilot shortcut, GIGABYTE AI gaming laptops also feature AI Nexus technology, including AI Power Gear, which automatically extends the PC’s battery life with its dynamic dGPU switch. The dynamic dGPU switch works in the same way as the typical “Eco/Sports Mode” button in a car: one mode allows the driver to save fuel while the other allows the driver to reach maximum speed.
It also has AI Boost, which automatically adjusts the GPU and processors to maximize response and deliver unmatched efficiency, a feature that is suitable for gamers who want the best gaming experience. The AI generator includes various AI applications generative tools such as Stable Diffusion (an application that produces photorealistic images from text) and ComfyUI (an application that creates images, videos and audio) for a quick start.
Revolutionary local AI training solution: AI TOP
Even though AI adoption has reached critical mass, there are still some pressing issues that need to be addressed before AI can be adopted by all businesses and consumers. Understanding these demands, GIGABYTE launched AI TOP at Computex in June 2024, a revolutionary desktop-based local AI training solution, including both hardware and software to “train your own AI on your desktop”, providing small and medium-sized businesses, research institutes and even ordinary consumers with a low barrier to access. AI training.
AI TOP combines data privacy through on-site training with powerful AI computing capabilities. AI TOP delivers 7.7x more power efficiency than typical desktop computers while running on a standard household power supply. Its intuitive configuration makes installation easy while providing exceptional flexibility and scalability to adapt to changing needs. Designed with a focus on privacy and security, AI TOP keeps all sensitive data in your machines. The combination of a suite of AI-ready hardware and GIGABYTE’s AI TOP Utility software makes GIGABYTE AI TOP an ideal solution for home use, where performance and peace of mind are essential.
To meet the rapidly evolving demands of the AI market, GIGABYTE quickly launched its AI TOP improved in October, offering a user-friendly interface, reimagined workflows, real-time progress dashboard tracking, and the ability to schedule training experiences to run at any time. It supports the best open source AI models, allowing beginners to start their own AI projects without programming skills.
And, to pair with the software, the AI TOP hardware line, including motherboards, SSDs, PSUs, and even chassis, are all built on AI technology to perfectly match the AI system TOP and manage heavy workloads during AI training. Additionally, the AI TOP clustering feature enables the connection of multiple AI TOP machines, providing scalable power for intensive AI tasks to meet growing high-performance computing needs.
Power of the GIGABYTE AI ecosystem
GIGABYTE understands that its success in launching its AI gaming laptops and AI TOP solution further relies on its collaborations with key partners in the AI ecosystem, such as Intel, AMD, Microsoft and NVIDIA . These partnerships allow GIGABYTE to access cutting-edge technology, integrate it seamlessly into its products, and improve compatibility with the tools and platforms that businesses and consumers rely on every day.
Through strategic innovation, partnerships and an unwavering commitment to user experience, GIGABYTE is helping shape a future where AI seamlessly integrates into everyday life, improving people’s quality of life around the world, said Eddie Lin, CEO of GIGABYTE. The “Improve Your Life” mission reflects GIGABYTE’s belief in AI as a transformative technology capable of unlocking new possibilities and elevating human potential in all areas of life.
