Kathy Gibson reports – Generative artificial intelligence is arguably going to have a more profound impact on the IT and business world than any innovation since the Internet. But, while users across the globe are itching to benefit from GenAI value, a lot of them won’t be able to.
AI is changing the world – and is driving new levels of human productivity, says Mario Fares, senior partner development manager: device partner solutions at Microsoft SA, speaking at a Pinnacle event for SME partners. Older devices can increase vulnerability, Fares says. “Customers not using the latest OS are more exposed.”
Of that 1,3-million devices unable to take advantage of Windows 11, a massive 503 000 are installed in enterprise environment, with 820 000 in small and medium enterprises . “So we need to start the refresh now,” Fares says. “If we don’t we will run into problems with supply and deliveries.When October 2025 rolls around, the supply chain is going to be constrained, so companies that take their time to being their refresh will be left behind, Fares adds.“The speed at which GenAI hit 100-million uses – three months – is indicative of how important it is going to be.”
