It will grow from $62.53 billion in 2025 to $77.21 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 23.5%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing demand for high-performance computing devices, rising adoption of AI applications among consumers and businesses, growing demand for faster data processing, increasing need for improved computing productivity, and rising demand for power-efficient computing devices.

The artificial intelligence (AI) personal computer (PC) market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $176.99 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 23.0%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing demand for real-time on-device AI capabilities, rising adoption of AI-assisted software development, growing demand for AI-enabled content creation, increasing need for enhanced device-level security, and rising demand for reduced dependence on cloud processing. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing adoption of AI-enabled personal computers, rising integration of dedicated AI accelerators in PCs, growing demand for on-device AI processing, increasing adoption of AI-enabled laptops and workstations, and rising demand for AI-optimized PC hardware.

The expansion of hybrid work and remote work is expected to drive the growth of the artificial intelligence (AI) personal computer (PC) market in the coming years. Hybrid work and remote work refer to flexible work arrangements that allow employees to perform their tasks from a combination of office locations and remote environments using digital collaboration tools. Hybrid and remote work are expanding as organizations increasingly adopt flexible workplace policies to improve employee productivity, enhance work-life balance, and reduce operational costs. AI personal computers support hybrid and remote work by providing on-device AI capabilities for intelligent video conferencing, real-time noise cancellation, live transcription, enhanced security, and productivity optimization while enabling faster performance and improved data privacy. For instance, in February 2025, according to the Office for National Statistics (ONS), a UK-based government department, 28% of working adults in Great Britain followed a hybrid working model between January and February 2025, while 13% worked entirely from home, highlighting the continued adoption of flexible work arrangements. Therefore, the expansion of hybrid work and remote work is driving the growth of the artificial intelligence (AI) personal computer (PC) market.
