Tantra's Mantra with Prakash Sangam

This is the fourth episode in our series, focused on analyzing the introduction of CoPilot+ PCs. In this, I discuss with Pooja Sathe, Director and category leader of Worldwide Commercial AI PCs at market leader Lenovo, about their “Windows on Arm” journey with Qualcomm from the early beginnings until Snapdragon X Elite and X Plus SoCs, the design principles behind CoPilot+ PCs, customer feedback, target enterprise profiles, and personas for these PCs, and what the future competitive landscape will look like when Intel and AMD SoCs enter the market.

We also delve into Lenovo's efforts to ensure app compatibility of Windows on Arm, the role of AI/NPU now and their evolution, Lenovo's definition of AIPC, whether AIPCs will be a separate category or whether everything will be AIPCs in the future, and more.
