PENANG/TAIPEI -- Intel on Tuesday unveiled its first AI-equipped chipset for personal computers as the U.S. chipmaker seeks to reenergize the PC market and regain its lead in the global semiconductor industry.

Intel said this is the first time it has created a dedicated neural processing unit -- or NPU -- to be used with its central computing and graphic processors in order to handle AI workloads on PCs and other end-user devices.
