Dell Technologies Expands AI Offerings
Dell Technologies has unveiled a significant expansion of its artificial intelligence (AI) offerings, introducing a new line of AI-enabled personal computers (PCs) and servers compatible with the latest chips.
AI-Enabled Personal Computers
- Dell introduces new line of AI-capable PCs powered by Qualcomm processors.
- The PCs feature Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X series chips with neural processing units (NPUs) for complex AI tasks.
- Two out of the five new PC models are available for pre-order immediately.
- Remaining models to be released in the upcoming months.
New Servers with Advanced Features
- Dell unveils servers compatible with Nvidia’s latest chips.
- The servers feature advanced liquid cooling technology for improved efficiency and reduced power consumption.
- Arthur Lewis, president of Dell’s infrastructure solutions group, highlights the servers as the fastest growing product in the company’s history.
The announcements were made at a high-profile event in Las Vegas to bolster Dell’s position in the AI server market and leverage the expected recovery of the PC market this year.
Qualcomm’s shares surged nearly 2% following the news, while Dell’s shares experienced a slight decline of about 2.6%.
The AI server market is projected to surpass $33 billion in spending by 2024, with Dell foreseeing substantial contributions from smaller companies in the early stages of technology adoption.
Despite the growth in AI server spending, Dell does not anticipate a significant impact on traditional server expenditure.
Analysts eagerly await Dell’s quarterly earnings report on May 30, expecting increased demand driven by the new AI PCs and servers.
