Intel’s next‑generation desktop chips may be preparing one of the biggest shifts in on‑device AI since NPUs first arrived on client silicon: recent leaks claim the Core Ultra 400 “Nova Lake‑S” family will ship with an NPU6 block rated near 74 TOPS, a figure that would not only eclipse Intel’s...

When a motoring podcaster likened Microsoft Word’s unpredictable table behaviour to the idiosyncrasies of an Alfa Romeo, he opened a productive line of thought: if Microsoft—the company that gave us Windows, Office, Azure and Copilot—decided to build a car, what would it actually be like? The...
