(credit: intel corporation). anyone with an intel-based ai pc can download, install and launch ai assistants for local use for free. in this article: since its debut at ces las vegas in january, intel® ai assistant builder has proved popular with computer makers and software vendors as a way to quickly create tailored ai assistants. a short five months later, intel announced at computex that ai assistant builder is now available in public beta at github. anyone with an intel-based ai pc – one running a member of the intel® core™ ultra processor family – can now use it free of charge. computex 2025: intel unveils new gpus for ai and workstations (news) | intel at computex 2025 (press kit). optimized for intel platforms, the software stack simplifies the task of creating and running custom ai agents locally on a user’s intel-based ai pc. it is a turnkey ai development platform built for simplicity, specificity and flexibility. it offers production-ready features — from model optimization and selection to retrieval-augmented generation (rag) and agentic workflows — via an easy-to-use interface and robust back-end apis. designed for enterprise needs, ai assistant builder enables customization rather than relying on generic, one-size-fits-all solutions. and unlike rigid pre-packaged offerings, it supports rapid adaptation to the latest large language models, allowing hyper-parameter tuning and custom workflows for a tailored, future-proof ai experience. “ai assistant builder is providing enterprises the building blocks and tools that enable them to easily custom-build the ai solutions they need, significantly reducing the complexity of ai development,” said dr. olena zhu, senior principal engineer and ai solution architect in intel’s client computing group. paving the path to create innovative solutions. while intel ai assistant builder is now available via public beta to everyone on github, it’ll also be available in purpose-built ai pcs coming soon from key intel customers such as acer and asus. asus – a leading pc original equipment manufacturer (oem) based in taiwan – announced this week a collaboration with intel to introduce a new ai developer tool kit that is powered by intel ai assistant builder technology. more: intel’s new ai suite helps customers quickly create ai assistants. the goal? streamline the development of ai applications, significantly shortening the time to develop ai projects. the ai developer tool kit will be available in the second half of 2025. ʺour goal is to provide independent software vendors (isv) and system integrator (si) developers with the resources they need to quickly and efficiently integrate ai into their solutions,ʺ said kuowei chao, general manager of asus iot. ʺthis tool kit will allow developers to easily deploy ai models on devices like nuc 15 pro, enabling them to create innovative applications that benefit a wide range of users.ʺ. in another example, acer – headquartered in taiwan – is collaborating with intel to create and drive new ai agents into education and government sectors. acer plans to combine the intel ai assistant builder software stack with its unique hardware-based computer vision and software technology, including model context protocols (mcp) for ai agents, to deliver purpose-built assistants that run locally on acer ai pcs, like the acer swift x 14. “the next big wave in ai is focused on building ai agents running locally on ai pcs and the edge,” said todd lewellen, vice president and general manager of pc ecosystem at intel. “the ai assistant builder software stack is a true ‘builder’ platform that enables our ecosystem partners to easily scale ai agents across commercial, government, education and consumer segments.”. next up: ai assistant builder takes to the enterprise cluster. while ai assistant builder was originally developed to enable enterprise ai solutions that run locally on an ai pc, zhu’s intel team is working on new features that extend to the entire enterprise environment. a future iteration of ai assistant builder expands its footprint beyond the standalone ai pc – to the enterprise cluster. ai assistant builder 2.0 will allow users to connect their ai pcs to high-powered edge or server clusters. that connection will enable clients to crunch workloads utilizing the collective enterprise computing muscle. “in this instance, ai assistant builder 2.0 will smartly distribute workloads to the user’s local ai pc or to a remote cluster based on multiple factors such as the file location and request complexity,” zhu said. another upcoming feature will offer multi-agent functionality. “we’re excited to build on the original software stack and introduce new features like multi-agent orchestration, ai agents built with mcp and the ability to connect across ai pcs and server clusters,” zhu said. “we can’t wait to see how our key partners across the world use these capabilities to custom-build their own ai solutions and further enhance productivity.”. these new features are being previewed with select customers and are on display at computex 2025.
