Innovate with Intel® AI PCs: Leveraging NPU for Cutting-edge AI Solutions

Overview:

Participants are tasked with developing innovative ideas and use cases for a client-side AI application powered by Intel® AI PC. The aim is to demonstrate the seamless offloading capabilities of Intel® AI PC, which leverages its integrated compute units—CPU, NPU, and GPU—to deliver optimized and efficient AI performance.

Participants are encouraged to explore one or more Intel®-recommended AI tools or libraries during ideation. Although initial development can be done on any CPU or GPU hardware, selected projects will receive access to Intel® AI PC hardware to optimize their prototypes. A proof of concept (PoC) is highly encouraged, ideally designed to run on Intel® Tiber AI Cloud or Intel® AI PC (if available) for optimal compatibility and performance.

Additionally, Intel® offers a range of pre-trained models on Hugging Face, optimized with Intel® technologies. These models are available for use and can help participants streamline development, providing a solid foundation for building impactful AI applications. This Idea Hackathon presents an exciting opportunity to create next-gen client-side AI solutions, leveraging Intel®’s cutting-edge hardware and software ecosystem.

Rules:

  • All the ideas and use cases are to be developed for the client-side AI application, which is to be enabled with Intel® AI PC
  • Showcase the efficient offloading capabilities of Intel® AI PC, utilizing its integrated compute units — CPU, NPU, and GPU — for optimized performance.
  • Participants are required to plan use of one or more tools / libraries from the below table . For the purpose of the Ideation these toolkits and libraries can be used on any hardware ( CPU & GPU) . For the selected entries , Intel® will provide the AIPC hardware to optimize the prototypes at a later date.
  • Although not mandatory, participants are strongly encouraged to develop a proof of concept for their proposed idea, preferably designed to run on the Intel® Tiber AI Cloud and Intel® AI PC (if available), or alternatively on any available CPU/GPU setup.
  • Intel® also offers the Pretrained models optimized with Intel® technologies on Hugging Face. And any of these models are encouraged to use. (refer resource center)

The proposed Idea should focus on any one of the GenAI use cases and Edge AI use cases for a variety of vertical industries
