To stay ahead, organisations need a device strategy built for the future - one that embraces AI. AI now reshapes the workforce as devices become central to how organisations innovate, secure, and scale their capabilities. AI-powered PCs (AIPCs) are purpose-built to support this evolution. Enhanced productivity, reduced cloud dependency and energy use and other use cases are transforming how IT leaders adopt AI.
As organisations review their device suitability as part of the move to Windows 11, this also presents the opportunity to explore a future-ready strategy. AIPCs offer a chance to future-proof your IT infrastructure while unlocking AI-driven innovation and scalability.
Performance where it matters most
As organisations start to embrace on-device AI, the use of Small Language Models (SLMs) will bring additional productivity, performance and battery life benefits.
On-device AI means reduced lag, faster outputs, and personalised experiences – whether you’re analysing data in Excel, generating content in PowerPoint, or using AI chat tools.
Built-in security and control
AI models running locally improve detection and response times without constantly calling out to the cloud-reducing risk exposure and giving teams more control.
Sustainability and cost savings
AI processing on the device cuts reliance on energy-hungry data centers, supporting carbon reduction goals while lowering long-term operational costs.
Custom AI for every persona
Microsoft Copilot Studio enables organisations to tailor on-device AI models to different roles – from hybrid workers to frontline teams – unlocking smarter workflows at every level.
Making the case for AIPCs
AIPCs are changing how organisations think about performance, sustainability, and workforce enablement. Knowing what sets them apart and how to match the right devices to the right users, is essential to driving meaningful transformation.
Explore how AI-powered PCs (AIPCs) can transform productivity, security, and sustainability.
