MSI Announces New Prestige 16 AI Series Laptops
With the zeitgeist of AI technology taking the world by storm, MSI, a world-leading premium laptop brand, has taken it in stride through its professionalism over luxurious aesthetics, extreme performance and innovative technology. Featuring the Intel Core Ultra 9 processor, the new Prestige 16 AI series weighs merely 1.5 kg by virtue of the Magnesium Alloy chassis, yet carries a 99.9 WHr battery with up to PD 3.1 140 W Charging for long-lasting usage to pump up productivity.
Sporting up to the latest Intel Core Ultra 9 processor, the new Prestige 16 AI series capitalizes on Intel's integrated NPU (Neural Processing Unit) technology, a dedicated AI acceleration core that generates a much more efficient CPU/GPU computing experience as well as enhances power efficiency. By riding the wave of enhancing the performance of AI-related tasks, Intel has collaborated with over 100 AI-ready applications to further accelerate workflow by transitioning workload to NPU.
On the other hand, MSI springs into action by coming up with the new MSI AI Engine, which delves into different AI-determined user scenarios to automatically adjust the hardware settings without any manual involvement, including "Intelligent Gaming", "Intelligent Work", "Intelligent Meeting" and "Intelligent Entertainment".
With the Intel Evo platform certification that delivers heavyweight performance with lightweight portability, NVIDIA Studio certification also enters the picture to provide further advantage that powers top creative apps by carrying up to NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop GPU. To catch up with what the GPU is offering, the new OLED display takes the visual experience to the next level with a 16:10 aspect ratio. As importantly, I/O port rearrangement and the latest Wi-Fi 7 rounds out the major updates, which indeed speaks volumes of how this laptop is able to heighten your workflow.
Aside from the 16-inch version, the new Prestige 13 AI Evo, by the same token featuring Intel Core Ultra processor, weighs only 990 g with a 75 WHr battery inside, which is up to 50% larger the battery capacity compared to other laptops at the same level in the market.

(Excepting AI / MI Accelerators, once called GPGPUs)
No, I don't 'hate' AI; I hate marketing wank.
I'm guessing they're just not willing to pay for the good PR, or more people are willing to call them out. :laugh:
I won't hate on literally-everything MSI but, (IIRC) they *do* have a history of manipulative PR strategies.
People who seriously use AI for work don't rely on a laptop intel SoC...they rely on the cloud or a remote workstation/datacenter to do the heavy-lifting
For people who rely on their workstation for lighter things, Nvidia and Apple Silicon are there.
