"What we've learned over the course of this year, from a consumer perspective, is they're not buying based on AI."

Dell’s CES 2026 chat was the most pleasingly un-AI briefing I’ve had in maybe 5 years

    AI computers have a NPU chip in them. These ones do too, the article seems to be mostly about how they’re not marketing AI heavily because people really don’t care about AI.

      To the extent people actually might like AI, they exclusively think about remote executed stuff. They don’t care about on device stuff.

      But for the rest, it is worse than not caring, many people hate it. It’s a toxic brand for those.

      Which is weird to me because the only time I ever actually got to utilize NPUs was for local running stuff like tensorflow or pytorch.

      Only other space I’ve seen them utilized is mobile devices for image enhancements, etc. On a laptop, not so much.
