As artificial intelligence reshapes how people work, IT leaders face a new challenge: determining which employees truly need AI-ready devices — and what that means in practice. There’s a lot of powerful hardware available, but IT leaders must consider the actual workflows and specific needs of users to determine which devices are right for each employee.

That’s the approach HP takes with its Z by HP workstation line, says Mark Abboreno, Channel Z Workstation sales specialist for HP. “You really have three different types of users when it comes to AI PCs,” he explains. “Each has very different performance needs, and HP has a workstation for all three.”

But before exploring those categories, let’s explain what an AI workstation is: Unlike a standard business PC, an AI workstation combines workstation-class reliability and expandability with the power to run AI models natively — enabling users to tap into generative, analytical and creative AI tools directly on their devices.
