HP unveils new AI PCs, software tools to boost productivity
It probably won’t come as a surprise to hear that new research has found that British workers often have to give up their free time for work-related commitments, but if you’re one of the 1 in 3 British workers who regularly skip their lunch break to keep track of your management tasks, HP has new tools for you.
The company has announced its new Amplify AI program, which will provide “tools, resources, training and certification” to ensure partners are well-equipped to use AI to help their customers and within their own businesses.
A previous survey found that only 42% of employees and 51% of business leaders believe AI can alleviate tedious tasks and allow employees to focus on the more critical aspects of their work – but HP hopes this will improve .
An AI PC for your administrative needs
In addition to the Amplify program, the HP company is releasing the new HP OmniBook Ultra 14 Flip, the next generation AI PC 2-in-1 laptop that costs £1699 and features a built-in AI partner that can answer questions, analyze documents and information can gather insights to help reduce workload.
“AI will be a key driver of change in the future of work, increasing productivity and helping employees enjoy their work by taking simple and repetitive tasks off their hands,” said Neil Sawyer, Managing Director of HP’s Northwest European Market .
“According to HP’s WRI, 65% of employees in the UK believe AI will make their jobs easier, and at HP we want to make this a reality by empowering employees with the latest AI technology to achieve their ambitions.” he continued.
Recent research has shown that UK workers are extremely confused about how to integrate AI into their daily work. In fact, only one in four employees actually uses AI every day.
We’ve seen a slew of new products like this as Lenovo AI-enabled PCs saw a 228% increase in Q2 2024. These products hope to encourage employees to use AI for everyday tasks to increase productivity across the board.
