Panos Panay, Microsoft’s executive vice president and chief product officer, said in 2021 that Windows 11 was the first chapter in a new era in the Windows universe and relatively recently we were able to discover it Windows 12 was a real project, And it’s been in development for some time.

The truth is that at the time we could not give the right context to the words of Panos Panay, that is, we did not fully understand what he was actually referring to, something that has completely changed today thanks to the statements made by the executive. referring to the dedicated AI engine (artificial intelligence) that assemble the Ryzen 7040. According to Panos Panay:

“AI is the defining technology of our time, unlike anything I’ve seen before. It’s transforming the industry, improving our daily lives in so many ways, some of which you see, some of which you don’t, and right now we’re at a tipping point. Here, cloud-to-edge computing is getting smarter, getting more personal, all by harnessing the power of AI. […] Now that AMD is also betting on this technology, with the Ryzen 7040, is the next step on this common path«.

The CEO also said that artificial intelligence will reinvent the way we do all things with Windows, which is a statement they clearly point to Windows 12 powered by artificial intelligence. I know some of our readers may have raised their eyebrows, but the truth is, it makes sense. Artificial Intelligence It has been present on our smartphones for quite some time now, and Microsoft is one of the companies that has invested the most resources in this technology, although it is true that until now it has concentrated its efforts on its deployment in the professional sector. Its arrival on consumer PCs would be a completely natural step.

It would offer Windows 12 enhanced with artificial intelligence excellent user experience, both in terms of features, performance and securityand could be accelerated through various hardware components. AMD uses dedicated Xilinx engines for AI acceleration in its APUs, Intel has also made big strides in this direction with its VPUs, and the GeForce RTX 20 and higher and Radeon RX 7000 graphics cards contain dedicated cores for AI acceleration. AI acceleration.

The hardware is there and the possibilities offered by artificial intelligence are so exciting that its widespread adoption in Windows 12 would be completely understandable and good news, as it would open the door to new experiences and could be the key to to create a completely revolutionary new generation operating system.
