Revolutionizing Business:
How AI-Powered Surface PCs With Intel Processors Are Changing the Game

Rocketing demand for the necessary compute power to fuel business productivity, creativity and sustainability sets the stage for an epic shift in next-gen business tools.

What exactly does this shift look like? How does it impact digital business operations?

Ready to meet this demand head-on, we see Microsoft’s next-gen on-device AI launch — the Surface Pro 10 for Business and the Surface Laptop 6 for Business — poised to reimagine business computing. Powered by the latest Intel Core Ultra processors, the Surface PC’s fusion of cutting-edge technology equipped with AI capabilities sets a new standard in efficiency, security and innovation.

Microsoft’s on-device AI technology lineup marks a powered leap forward in user-centric design and performance. Built to meet the needs of a new era of digital demand, Microsoft’s AI-powered Surface PCs are ready to propel professionals and businesses out into a field of new possibilities.

The rise of AI in business computing

The integration of AI into personal computers is not just an upgrade; it’s a revolution in how businesses operate. AI-powered PCs, like the new Surface Pro 10 and Surface Laptop 6, offer a stark contrast to traditional computers by embedding intelligence that can anticipate user needs, automate routine tasks and optimize processes. These capabilities translate into tangible benefits for business environments that measure success in terms of sustainable sprints and cost-effective key performance indicators.

AI-embedded PCs leverage advanced Intel Core Ultra processors — which integrate CPU, GPU and Neural Processing Units (NPUs) into a single package — to handle complex tasks at lightning-fast speeds. Instant access to AI-driven tools and workflows enables Surface-empowered teams to free up valuable time for strategic thinking and creative engagement. The shift toward more intelligent computing resources transforms even the most mundane task into an opportunity for innovation.

It’s been one year since we first introduced the world to Copilot for Microsoft 365, and data from our Work Trend Index research shows it’s already making employees more productive and creative, saving some as much as 10 hours per month.
