Nvidia wants to ‘reinvent the PC’ with agentic AI, but I’m not sure the rest of us are on board

One concept was continually repeated by Nvidia at Computex 2026, and it’s this idea of “reinventing the PC.” The phrase has been used in reference to the company’s RTX Spark SoC—powering “the world’s first Windows PCs purpose-built for personal agents“—and from a hardware perspective, it’s an interesting bit of kit.

However, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang went further into the “reinvention” of the PC at a Q&A session later in the show. “Your personal computer is really the world’s largest edge device, and it’s 40 years old,” said the Nvidia chief. “And [it] has to be reinvented for agentic systems…. just like we have to reinvent the car.”
