AMD used CES 2026 to announce a new line-up of Ryzen AI processors to go up against Intel’s latest in thin-and-light laptops—and show how it’s fighting Nvidia in a new arena.

Tiiny AI Pocket Lab is officially recognized as the world’s smallest mini PC capable of running a 100b parameter llm locally.

AMD also compares the Ryzen AI Max+ directly against the Apple MacBook Pro M5 and finds it to offer superior performance in local AI, content creation, multitasking, and gaming. These results are plausible considering our own testing, although we don't have a MacBook Pro M5 on hand to compare against just yet.

What if the future of artificial intelligence wasn’t just smarter—but also smaller, faster, and more accessible than ever? With the release of GPT-5, OpenAI has introduced not one, but three tailored versions of its new model: Standard, Mini, and Nano.
