They come with AI CPU's, AI GPU's, an AI power brick and even an AI carry case for all your AI needs - and also the same shitty borderline unusable in Excel half-sized cursor keys, no dedicated Page / Up & Down keys that aren't gated off as secondary Fn functions, and the power off button inconveniently placed as a regular keyboard key right where the Delete key normally is, to reduce your Office suite productivity and increase suffering!..."

I swear that Youtube laptop review channel nailed it with "Most modern laptops are designed to be sold, not actually used"...
