Windows on Arm vs Intel: Which laptop platform is right for you?

Windows laptops powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon processors are now challenging Intel-based laptops in the market.
Windows on Arm project aims to offer snappy performance and long battery life in thin and light laptops like Asus ZenBook A14 and Dell XPS 13.
Apps built for Intel-based PCs can run on Arm-based Windows laptops through an emulation layer called Prism, with some performance impact.
Windows on Arm laptops excel in wake-up speed, productivity tasks, and battery life, making them suitable for office work and basic creative apps like Adobe suite.
These laptops are efficient with AI tools and suit general business and student use, except for tasks requiring heavy graphics or specialized software.
On the other hand, Intel-based laptops are preferable for gaming and tasks needing custom drivers, printing utilities, or high-performance graphics for CAD and video editing.
Windows on Arm laptops have limitations in graphics performance and scalability, making them less suitable for demanding gaming or professional creative work.
For affordability and hardware versatility, Intel-based laptops are a better choice, as Windows on Arm laptops are still priced higher and lack certain performance capabilities.
While Windows on Arm offers good battery life and productivity performance, Intel-powered laptops are more suitable for gaming, heavy graphics work, and demanding software applications.
Ultimately, the choice between Windows on Arm and Intel laptops depends on the user's specific needs, budget, and performance requirements.

There is a call to build public, open-access LLMs for the humanities that are transparent, accountable, and supported by public funding.
The humanities have the opportunity to create culturally aware AI and should take responsibility for owning LLMs responsibly for scholarly integrity and public knowledge.
