And on the same day intel release the Core Ultra 200 series with a massive 13 TOPS!
I don't care about any of that but great way to shoot yourself in the foot again Intel.
AMD has introduced its latest processors designed for business applications. The line-up includes the Ryzen AI 9 HX PRO 375, Ryzen AI 9 HX PRO 370, and Ryzen AI 7 HX PRO 360.

More likely, it will be like cars: sooner than you would like it will be impossible to buy one with a manual transmission and without a permanent internet connection in support of various "smart" features, but really there for the surveillance and post-sales monetization. Just like TVs.
There's a decent enough reason for the death of the manual transmission at least. It doesn't work too well with proper (not this "mild" nonsense) hybrids, and electric vehicles don't have gears at all.
The connected nonsense is exactly that, though. I know someone with a new RAV4 who gets a big reminder that they should sign up to Toyota's connected services every time they turn the car on.
