The CPU is optimized for AI processing thanks to the Neural Processing Unit. The NPU can output up to 45 TOPs of AI performance which should be enough for all your AI needs.

Regarding the GPU, there’s Qualcomm Adreno that will deliver up to 3.8 TFLOPs. It’s also worth mentioning that the GPU can power three external displays at 4K 60Hz HDR, two at 4K 120Hz, or one at 5K 60Hz.
