This represents a significant increase from this year, when 50 million units are expected to be reached.
This prediction is based on data from IDC showing the rapid proliferation of neural processing units (NPUs) in consumer devices.
NPUs are specifically designed to perform AI tasks efficiently, unlike traditional CPUs and GPUs, which are not optimized for such tasks and can affect overall system performance and drain battery faster.
There are three classes of AI computers, including devices with 40 TOPS NPU performance that typically enable AI features in applications, and next-generation AI computers with 40 to 60 TOPS NPU performance that use an AI-centric operating system to enable AI. System level capabilities.
By 2027, shipments of next-generation AI computers are expected to be twice as large as shipments of devices with AI-enabled hardware.
