I work in computer sales and refuse to sell any of the AI PCs to my customers. I feel as if they're not ready for prime time and this is just another point towards that. I could use one but I wouldn't ever recommend one to someone without more PC knowledge than the average person.

I think you're talking total nonsense.

They're just PCs. I don't care about the AI but I do care about they've standardised 16GB of RAM. So much so even Apple have copied Microsoft here.

Also who cares about Amazon? They're a capitol letter money maker, they're never a place you should be taking seriously.

Qualcomm, like Intel and AMD, should have created their own Linux operating system instead of relying on the thorny Windows platform. Sooner or later they will have to pay for their unwise choice.
