- The majority of knowledge workers are already using AI to make their jobs easier.
- AI apps can add a new dimension to ensure innovation and creativity in the workplace.
- By utilizing AI PC apps, businesses can improve peak performance by up to 66%.
In today's workplace, AI is no longer just a buzzword, it's a fundamental business tool. AI dramatically improves productivity by adding an NPU (Neural Processing Unit) to PCs, empowering employees to use AI in a way that works for them. With this purpose-built AI engine, employees can deploy powerful deep learning and inference tools wherever they are, even without an internet connection.
So it's no wonder that three-quarters of knowledge workers worldwide now use AI tools in their jobs. These tools can increase productivity by up to 66%. Employees say that AI helps them focus on important tasks, makes them more creative, and makes their work more enjoyable.
Benefits like these make it compelling for businesses to invest in AI. Here are three AI applications that organizations can leverage to maximize workplace collaboration, productivity, and creativity.
1. Windows Studio Effects
From noisy interruptions to missing participants, you often have to deal with inevitable annoyances in video conferencing.
Some active presenters tend to move around. They may need to reach over to take notes, find a file or close a window. Windows Studio Effects' AI-powered auto-framing ensures participants are always centered in the video frame. And when it comes to the barking dog, the roaring lawnmower or the cappuccino maker humming in the kitchen, Voice Focus ensures no one can hear you.
Studio Effects can also use AI Eye Contact to help users lead meetings or deliver presentations with more confidence by using the computer's NPU to make it appear as if the user is looking directly into the camera, even when reading on-screen notes.
By eliminating distractions and encouraging collaboration, Windows Studio Effects helps increase focus, improve communication, and make every meeting go more smoothly.
2. Adobe Lightroom
Photo editing is complex, but image masking is especially so. Image masking is a technique editors use to isolate parts of an image from others. It's a time-consuming process, but a necessary one, as it gives photo editors the opportunity for more manipulation and precision. AI-assisted masking in Adobe Lightroom takes the tedious work out of the equation by isolating areas that need work, even when the boundaries aren't clearly defined.
For example, editors can automatically generate face masks for group portraits and erase gray hairs in beards with a single stroke. Curves lets editors smooth the contours of a rocky coastline or enhance jagged edges for effect, while photos and video clips can be instantly switched from color to black and white and vice versa. And Lightroom's Noise Reduction feature further enhances images by clearing up grainy backgrounds or brightening dim faces.
The AI-enhanced Lightroom runs up to 52% faster than previous versions, with more granular control to help creative professionals produce high-quality images faster and organizations serve more clients in less time.
3. Crowdstrike
The ability to work from anywhere means users are logging in from more devices and locations than ever before, opening up new and more sophisticated cyber attacks.
Until recently, advanced AI threat detection was performed by the central processing unit. Now, you can reduce the strain on PC performance. With CrowdStrike, the NPU handles the majority of the inference work, and the right execution engine runs the right workload. Hosting feature-rich AI security applications directly on the AI PC accelerates threat detection and remediation, and eliminates the need to send sensitive data to the cloud.
These innovative apps are just the beginning of an AI revolution that will change the very nature of work, and as deep learning systems gain more knowledge, we can be sure they will deliver even greater productivity gains.
