(Sharecast News) - Semiconductor titan Nvidia on Monday unveiled a new superchip jointly developed with Microsoft that promises to "revinent Windows PCs for the era of personal AI agents".
Announced at the COMPUTEX conference in Taipei, the RTX Spark chip is able to equip personal computers with AI capabilities locally, rather than rely on cloud computing, putting the product in direct competition with those of tech giants Apple and Intel.
RTX Spark features up to 1 petaflop of AI compute and 128GB of unified memory, which Nvidia says is enough to meet the processing demands of on-device agents, and is designed for AI, creating and gaming, the company said.
"Built to adapt to individual preferences and workflows, these agents can interact with applications, generate content, automate repetitive processes and manage multi-step tasks - all while running locally on device," Nvidia said in a press release.
"The PC is being reinvented," said Nvidia's founder and chief executive Jensen Huang.
"For forty years, you launched apps. Click. Type. With RTX Spark and Microsoft Windows, you ask - and the PC does the work. RTX Spark brings everything NVIDIA has built - CUDA, RTX, our AI platform - into a single superchip. Local agents. Frontier models. Creative workflows. RTX games. All on a laptop. This is the new PC. The personal AI computer."
