@pierre_bernard@mastoot.fr @sslaia@mastodon.social It will probably run Linux just fine and if you want to use a *local* AI application under Linux, that application can benefit from the additional NPU that is present besides the regular CPU and GPU in "AI PCs". It's partly also a Microsoft-related marketing term. See this article: https://www.tomshardware.com/laptops/what-is-an-ai-pc
