Intel recently participated in the Hot Chips 2023 conference, demonstrating a new AI power management system for CPUs. The highlight of the system is the use of machine learning to learn the user’s usage habits, and then automatically switch between high-power and low-power states at the right time.
Intel said that after the introduction of the AI power management system, the battery life performance can be increased by 15%, and more importantly, the response mechanism of the laptop is optimized to interact with the user faster.
Intel said that the core of the AI power management system is dynamic voltage and frequency sampling (DVFS) technology, which can continuously learn by itself, continuously optimize power switching according to user habits, and reduce power consumption to extend battery life.
Meteor Lake will be the first significant client architecture to introduce AI-accelerated core VPUs for low-power AI inference tasks. Although Intel has made some disclosures about the Meteor Lake architecture, specific details about SKUs, core counts, clock speeds, and performance targeting are still to be revealed.
It was reported in June this year that Intel announced a major upgrade of the Core brand, splitting it into a new Intel Core Ultra for flagships and an Intel Core processor brand for mainstream products. Intel said that the upcoming Meteor Lake processor is a revolutionary generation of products, starting with this product, the brand will enable a new naming method.
