It probably won’t come as much of a surprise to hear new research has found British workers often have to give up their spare time for work related commitments - but if you’re one of the 1 in 3 British workers who regularly skips their lunch break to catch up on admin tasks,HPhas new tools for you.
The company has announced its new Amplify AI programme, which is set to offer “tools, resources, training, and certification” to make sure partners are well equipped to use AI to help their customers and within their own business.
This follows a survey by HP which found 42% of workers and 51% of business leaders believe that AI can alleviate tedious tasks and allow employees to focus on the more critical aspects of their work - but HP hopes this will improve.
An AI PC for your admin needs
Alongside the Amplify programme, the company HP is releasing the new HP OmniBook Ultra 14 Flip, its next-gen AI PC 2-in-1 laptop costing £,1699 and featuring an inbuilt AI companion which can answer questions, analyze documents, and gather insights to help reduce workloads.
“AI is set to be a significant driver of change in the future of work, increasing productivity and allowing workers to enjoy their jobs more by taking simple and repetitive tasks off their plates,” said Neil Sawyer, Managing Director of HP’s Northwest Europe market.
Recent research has shown British workers areoverwhelmingly confused about how to integrate AIinto their day-to-day work, and in fact only one in four workers actually use AI every day.
We have seen a slew of new products such as these, asLenovo AI capable PCs saw a 228% risein the second quarter of 2024. These products are hoping to encourage workers to adopt AI for mundane tasks to boost productivity across the board.
