Sept 3 (Reuters) - Nvidia ‌on Thursday ​said ​Lenovo and Acer will launch the first Windows PCs powered by ‌its RTX Spark chip in October, as ⁠the chip giant pushes to bring AI capabilities ‌directly to laptops and ‌desktop computers.

Tech giants are increasingly pushing for on-device AI to cut the cost ​of cloud-based services, while improving privacy and responsiveness by processing tasks locally on ⁠users' devices.

Here are some more details:

• The chip giant said ​Acer and Lenovo would join a growing list of manufacturers launching systems ​powered by the RTX Spark ‌chip, which combines a Blackwell graphics processor with a Grace central ⁠processor.

• Nvidia unveiled the RTX Spark in June as part of a partnership with Microsoft ⁠to "reinvent the PC" for the AI era after ​three years of collaboration between the companies. The chip was developed in collaboration with Taiwan's MediaTek.

• Apple ‌last month refreshed its Mac mini and Mac Studio desktops with ‌its latest M-series chips, saying the systems ⁠can run larger ‌AI models and ​autonomous AI agents locally.
