Hello Shachar_Naor,

Thank you for posting on Intel Community Forum.

The Intel NPU is designed to enhance and optimize the AI workload of a system efficiently. This feature supports various tasks, including data transfer, video editing, and compute operations. It becomes particularly beneficial when the system demands real-time AI processing.

I did the Python code test in from the second link and the terminal said I have a very old NPU driver. 

It linked me to a driver download site which I downloaded the newest version but, I dont know where and how to install that driver because its just a zip file and not an automatic installer

I managed to solve the problem using advice from ChatGPT

I updated the drivers and did a python code check and now the NPU works (added pciture). 

(good moment to tell you that the first code in the overview isnt working properly [even with small modification due to error message, added a picture], the second one does).
