At the Amplify Partner Conference in Las Vegas last week, HP Inc announced the industry’s largest portfolio of AI PCs. The machines, HP said, leverage the power of AI to enhance productivity, creativity, and user experiences in hybrid work settings.
In an ever-changing hybrid work landscape, workers are still struggling with disconnection and digital fatigue. HP’s 2023 Work Relationship Index reveals that only 27% of knowledge workers have a healthy relationship with work, and 83% believe it’s time to redefine our relationships with work. Most employees believe AI will open new opportunities to enjoy work and make their jobs easier, but they need the right AI tools and technology to succeed.
“At HP, our mission is to empower companies to capitalise on the power of AI, sparking ambitious and meaningful progress in every organisation,” said Alex Cho, president of personal systems at HP Inc. “We are proud to represent the industry’s broadest portfolio of AI PCs. By harnessing AI as a personal tool, we are creating more personalised and meaningful work experiences, revolutionising the way we interact with technology and each other in the workplace.”
HP provided the following information on its new lineup:
For today’s leaders, knowledge workers, and creators, HP introduced the newest generation of AI HP Elite and Pro PCs, featuring Copilot in Windows and Windows 11 Pro, and Z by HP mobile workstations, delivering high-performance computing solutions designed to power the most demanding workflows.

Work protected with HP security solutions
Building upon our reputation as the world’s most secure and manageable PCs, today, HP introduced the world’s first business PCs to protect firmware against quantum computer hacks2 featuring HP’s upgraded Endpoint Security Controller (ESC) chip processor and OS, the ESC provides a hardware platform that reduces the risk of data breaches and improves productivity by preventing downtime.
The HP Elite and ProBook notebooks and Z by HP workstations are equipped with HP Wolf Security for Business to protect end users no matter where and how they work. HP also launched HP Cloud Endpoint Manager SaaS, which is purpose-built for mission-critical devices to help IT secure endpoints from threats with automated device monitoring and remediation.
Accelerate data science capabilities with the HP AI Creation Center, including Z by HP AI Studio
HP is accelerating the AI era with customised data science solutions. HP’s AI Creation Center combines the world’s most advanced workstation for AI with robust solutions like the Z by HP AI Studio to deliver the world’s most comprehensive workstation solution for AI development. Z by HP workstation solutions, designed in close collaboration with Nvidia, will help scale compute and AI resources from an on-premise infrastructure to the cloud simplifying how companies build and customise private AI models through a platform that connects data teams, tools, and compute.
By integrating Nvidia’s data and pre-trained models into HP’s’ AI Studio, customers can now easily access workflows anywhere. Nvidia GPUs accelerate training, increasing the speed to value. This seamless integration allows users to locate and utilise curated models and data within a centralised interface, incorporating the power of Nvidia NGC. HP’s AI Studio, enhanced by Nvidia technology, is planned to be the first AI development platform to incorporate Nvidia NGC from a workstation OEM.
For data scientists and AI creators, the ability to seamlessly scale projects from an AI workstation to the cloud is critical. By building AI models in a hybrid computer environment from one, centralised location from the start, they can more easily shift from product development to production for the most substantial data science and AI tasks. HP and Nvidia share a joint vision to enable seamless scaling from workstations to the Nvidia DGX Cloud, providing flexibility and power in their computing capabilities.
