Advanced Micro Devices unveiled a new series of semiconductors for artificial intelligence-enabled business laptops and desktops on Tuesday as the chip designer looks to expand its share of the lucrative "AI PC" market.
These chips are expected to be available in platforms from HP and Lenovo starting in the second quarter of 2024, AMD said in a press release. AI-enabled PCs can run large-language models and apps powered by the technology directly on the device, instead of the cloud.

Its shares were up more than 2% in early trading.
