"Continuing the journey we started last year at Tech World, we are implementing our vision of hybrid artificial intelligence for our customers and partners around the world. We can already see how AI is improving people's quality of life and increasing business productivity, and Lenovo wants to make this process faster, more accessible, connected and sustainable. Our strategy is to combine the modularity of AI with customisation, so we can respond quickly to customers' needs, tailoring our solutions to their specific needs," commented Yuanqing Yang, president and CEO of Lenovo.

From Mark Zuckerberg, founder and CEO of Meta, to Dr. Lisa Su, president and CEO of AMD, the most well-known visionaries on the topic of AI also joined President Yang during the event: not surprisingly, the company has collaborated with a wide network of partners and customers to take the potential of artificial intelligence beyond what was imagined and achieve unexpected transformative results.

AI at the service of business

Regarding Lenovo Hybrid AI Advantage, designed to help organisations convert artificial intelligence into tangible results, the framework includes the new or a collection of ready-to-use templates to offer companies the ability to easily implement AI solutions spanning various areas: from product development to marketing to customer service.

A cooling system aimed at sustainability

A new family of ThinkSystem solutions has also been announced that ensures effective heat dissipation, up to 100 per cent, and includes servers designed to improve energy efficiency. The new generation of the Neptune liquid cooling system is currently being deployed by the company's partners and will enable organisations to accelerate generative artificial intelligence processing while reducing data centre energy consumption by up to 40 per cent.

Tolga Kurtoglu, Chief Technology Officer of Lenovo, said of the latest news: "Our vision of more accessible artificial intelligence for all is now a full reality, unlocking the potential of humanity. Our key differentiator is the integration of artificial intelligence into our broad portfolio of solutions, from device-enabled AI agents to more efficient server architectures. Lenovo is also engaged with its partners on a very ambitious path of scientific research and technological innovation, enabling us to continue to define current and future developments in artificial intelligence."

Technologies integrating AI for a more personal and secure approach

.

From personal computers to smartphones, tablets and accessories, to servers and public and private clouds, Lenovo offers a wide range of solutions on the market today that, thanks to the integration of artificial intelligence, delivers unprecedented personalisation, productivity and data protection in the worlds of work, education and private business.

In this regard, also at the Tech World 2024 event, the company unveiled Lenovo AI Now, an AI Agent that works locally and is able to transform PCs into true personalised assistants including the new ThinkPad X1 2-in-1 Gen 10 Aura Edition, an AI PC designed for hybrid work, the AI software platform for the studio christened Lenovo Learning Zone and presented innovative proof of concept such as the Lenovo AI Buddy interactive visual module as well as the proposed AI Workstation and ThinkShield security platform for AI PCs.

In parallel, Motorola, a subsidiary of Lenovo, unveiled new experiences in beta testing that make it easier to use the smartphone: these features include the creation of on-demand summaries of personal communications, the identification of interaction elements automatically, and the use of AI to generate contextual information for captured content such as photos.

Social Contribution

.

Finally, there is no shortage of innovations aimed at improving society. Among the innovations launched as well as part of the Work For Humankind initiative, which demonstrates how intelligent technology and responsible AI can benefit society, is Alzheimer's Intelligence, the first avatar companion to support people suffering from Alzheimer's and dementia: a tool that harnesses data sets from real-life experiences to provide assistance to those with a difficult diagnosis.

Finally, Yuanqing Yang presented a new communication solution for people with ALS that combines AI avatars, eye-tracking technology and predictive language models to improve communication. While, the collaboration with the largest cardiac hospital in Latin America supported the development of an arrhythmia detection platform clinically leading to the emergence of a wearable IoT device enabling real-time monitoring of cardiac conditions.
