Episode description as stored

Theo Jaffee speaks with Steven Sinofsky about the next generation of personal computing and the growing role of AI-native hardware. The conversation covers NVIDIA’s entry into the PC market, Microsoft’s strategy for AI-powered devices, Apple’s hardware roadmap, and the long-running tension between backward compatibility and platform reinvention. Sinofsky explains why AI may fundamentally change how personal computers are designed, and why local inference could become increasingly important as AI workloads grow. Along the way, they discuss Windows, Surface, Arm processors, Apple Silicon, and what the future of computing might look like as AI shifts from the cloud to devices.
