Intel announced the creation of two new AI (artificial intelligence) initiatives as part of the AI PC Acceleration Program. These are namely the AI PC Developer Program and the addition of independent hardware vendors (IHVs) to the program.
“We have made great strides with our AI PC Acceleration Program by working with the ecosystem. Today, with the addition of the AI PC Developer Program, we are expanding our reach to go beyond large ISVs and engage with small- and medium-sized players and aspiring developers. Our goal is to drive a frictionless experience by offering a broad set of tools including the new AI-ready Developer Kit.”

Intel AI PC Acceleration Program
The AI PC Developer Program is designed for software developers and independent software vendors for a frictionless developer experience. The program also makes it easy for developers to adopt new AI technologies at scale.
It provides access to tools, workflows, AI-deployment frameworks, and developer kits that include the latest Intel hardware featuring the Intel Core Ultra processor.
The updated developer resource pages provide a convenient one-stop shop for developers to access AI PC and client-focused toolkits, documentation, and training.
Meanwhile, the addition of IHVs to the AI PC Acceleration Program allows the IHVs to prepare, optimize, and enable their hardware for Intel AI PCs. Partners will gain access to the company’s Open Labs where they receive technical and co-engineering support early in the development phase.
Intel will also provide reference hardware so that qualified IHV Partners can test and optimize their technology.
