  1. No shit lol most people buy a computer to surf the Internet and use Microsoft office. Absolutely ZERO need for „AI“

  2. What I look for in a computer is CPU power and RAM.  Mainly for feeding Virtual Machines.  I tend to avoid Intel because of their insistence of using the big/little architecture while AMD only seems to use it on mobile CPUs.

    If I see AI, it’s a hard pass unless the initial is dirt cheap.

  3. It’s like buying a TV. I’ll pay extra for the model doesn’t include “Smart TV” features. If I want to use a feature I’ll install it.

    People who actually use a pc don’t need ai to do stuff. It’s a waste of time & space

    While you’re having these moments of clarity, Dell, I’d be more interested in looking at the new XPS line you’re trying to make a reality if it had SteamOS on it instead of Windows.

  6. Surprise, no one wants slop loaded computers that use half the resources onboard.

    All PCs will “have AI” like all TVs are “smart”. The overlords are committed to serving us slop and ads whenever possible.

  8. If I could host my own ai, sure. But no way even these ai pc’s would have enough resources to reliably run Claude on your machine. Not that it’s even an option with Claude. You’d have to use one of the open source options that aren’t nearly as performant.

  9. We already had Siri, Alexa, and OKGoogle, and people barely used those when they actually searched the internet. Now, they’re just as bad as they were ten years ago, and they no longer have the benefit of finding actual websites, just summaries of summaries made a billion times over that are probably wrong.

    Why would I want a PC that’s made just for asking questions and getting wrong answers?

    I can promise you that I am actively avoiding buying anything just because it „has AI“.

  11. Can someone explain what an AI PC is supposed to do? I’m familiar with CoPilot, GPT & Claude and understand the purpose & use case for AI, but I don’t have a clue what an ‚AI PC‘ means or what benefits it could bring. What benefits does it offer over an internet connection to my preferred AI source?

    If people wanted HAL in their houses, they’d go out and buy an (Amazon) Echo or something. People want a PC so they can do their own work on their own hardware, software (and, if possible, storage).

    I think they mean people have AI and AI tells them that Dell makes junk that’s never the best value.

  15. I feel we peaked in the 90s I’d like to go back to less automation and devices. I don’t need my dishwasher to talk to my phone and I don’t need AI critiquing my writing and offering me suggestions

  16. It’s why my dad won’t upgrade his iPhone or iPad, despite them getting quite old and slow (I think his iPhone is a 7…)

  17. Fear of missing out is a powerful marketing tool. With the meaningless buzzword, everything is AI, and AI ready.

    „Wow! AI on a laptop?! I am a smart modern man, I need this.“ Is as far as some will think.

    A few years ago anything with more than 4gb of G-ram had a VR ready sticker on it. 

    Dell is in a catch 22. If they do not market tword AI readiness they will appear behind their competiton who does, in the eyes of some lay-consumers.

    It is great if theyre now trying to cut some of the crap. Must be losing efficacy. 

  18. I don’t mind AI. I mind that it’s jammed into everything I’m trying to do. Clogging up all my browsers, interfaces, operating systems, etc. Make it opt in for those that want to use it and stop forcing it on the rest of us.

    Honestly, I want less AI, just give me a PC that works and I can decide how much AI I want it to have

  20. AI is the vegan of technology, in that people tend to avoid foods labelled ‘vegan’ even if they were vegan before. Personally, AI is a label for unwarranted intrusion, interference and incompetence.
