Envision What's Possible on the AI PC

AI is no longer just a cloud service — it’s becoming a first‑class capability of the device itself. In this interactive workshop, we’ll explore how Surface AI PCs unlock new possibilities by combining on‑device NPUs, Windows, and cloud‑connected AI services.
Attendees will learn how local AI processing can improve performance, privacy, battery life, and resilience, while enabling new experiences for students, faculty, and staff. We’ll walk through real‑world higher education scenarios such as intelligent note‑taking, accessibility enhancements, image and content creation, and offline‑capable AI workflows — all running directly on Surface devices.
This session is designed to help IT teams envision what’s possible, understand where AI belongs on the endpoint versus the cloud, and start thinking strategically about device refresh cycles in an AI‑first world.
