Yesh Surjoodeen, MD of HP Southern Africa, talks to ITWeb TV about the hype around AI-based PCs in the South African market.
PC maker HP is seeing increased demand for artificial intelligence -powered laptops in South Africa, says Yesh Surjoodeen , MD of HP Southern Africa, in an interview with ITWeb TV.
A recent report by market analyst firm Canalys shows the worldwide PC market had a healthy start to 2024, with total shipments of desktops and notebooks growing 3.2% annually, to 57.2 million units in Q1 2024. Though modest, it adds, this growth highlights the ongoing recovery in PC demand across all segments, with purchases set to accelerate throughout the year, supported by the tailwinds of Windows 11 refresh and AI-capable PCs.
“AI PCs now contribute a lot of data processing on the edge; you can’t have all your data sitting in the cloud. We have seen that in different industries and with different customers,” Surjoodeen says.
