What could go wrong?\u201d \u2026aaand that\u2019s the start of any number of science fiction blockbusters going all the way back to the 1927 Fritz Lang epic film Metropolis. It\u2019s actually a much older story, stretching back to the ancient Greek story of Pygmalion, but it\u2019s been revisited countless times in recent years \u2013 usually with disastrous results. So guess what Microsoft did? We put artificial intelligence into a state of the art device, and the results have been spectacular.<\/p>\n<h2>Let\u2019s start with the state of the art device<\/h2>\n<p>Sporting a 6th generation Intel\u00ae Core\u2122 processor, and four distinct modes of use, Surface Book is the most powerful and the most versatile 13-inch laptop available today. At 1.52kg, it\u2019s also one of the lightest. When you add its responsive touch-screen, 261 pixels per inch, and 8MP built in camera, you can see why users view it not just as state of the art, but as a work of art as well.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/youtube.com\/watch?v=XVfOe5mFbAE<\/p>\n<h2>Add Machine Learning<\/h2>\n<p>But the device is just the start. Every Surface Book comes standard with Windows 10: the most advanced Windows OS ever created. It uses machine learning to do everything from making log-ins faster and easier, to keeping your data secure. With Windows Hello, advanced facial recognition technology uses your face as a digital fingerprint to log you in. It\u2019s so advanced it can even tell identical twins apart.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Can twins trick facial recognition?\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/J1NL246P9Vg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>In terms of keeping your employees\u2019 and organisation\u2019s data safe, Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protector and Enterprise Data Protection both employ machine learning to analyse potential threats, and identify malware, viruses and unwanted software. Given that nearly 1 million new malware threats are created every day, it\u2019s easy to see how crucial machine learning is to keep up with continually evolving threats. You can read more about the technology behind <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.technet.microsoft.com\/mmpc\/2015\/11\/16\/windows-defender-rise-of-the-machine-learning\/\" target=\"_blank\">Windows Defender here.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>When you bring these two elements together, device and machine learning, the result is less blockbuster movie and more an extension of yourself, allowing you to achieve more. In fact, the result doesn\u2019t really feel like technology at all. It feels almost invisible it really provides a more personal computing experience.<\/p>\n<p>View our on-demand Surface Book webinar to see how Surface Book and Machine Learning make computing more
