Lenovo to mark MWC 2024 with more AI PCs

Lenovo has announced that it will unveil several new AI PCs and edge computing solutions at Mobile World Congress 2024, which takes place in Barcelona from 26 to 29 February.

According to the company, it hopes to bring “AI for all” by making the technology more readily available to the mainstream in the next few years. 

“Purpose-built to support AI, Lenovo’s AI PCs are designed and engineered to perform tasks such as reasoning, problem-solving, and learning,” said Lenovo. 

“More importantly, they create a user-machine bond, bringing tailored experiences amplified by AI. With stronger computing power and larger storage, large language models (LLMs) can easily run on the device rather than in the cloud. 

“Over time, these models adapt to the user’s preferences and habits, enhancing their assistance as time goes on, resulting in a more personalised experience while safeguarding privacy.”

The upcoming announcements will follow the Chinese-based company’s flood of AI PCs it announced at CES 2024.

Telecom and AI

Lenovo will also showcase several telecom infrastructure solutions that will be equipped with AI capabilities. The company said the solutions will help businesses leverage large amounts of data for AI applications at scale, while reducing energy consumption of cloud services. 

“As the telecom industry evolves to connect today’s digital economy, Lenovo’s Edge AI computing solutions are forging new AI capabilities across city streets throughout Barcelona and Madrid, like using video analytics and computer vision to identify smoke and fire, improve emergency response times and support public safety,” Lenovo said.

In addition, Lenovo will showcase two proof-of-concept products at MWC, which it claims will “challenge the traditional PC and smartphone form factors”. 

The first will be Motorola’s adaptive display concept, which uses a FHD+ pOLED display that can be bent and shaped into different forms depending on users’ needs. The other will be a laptop developed by the Intelligent Devices Group and Lenovo Research teams that the company declares will “push the boundaries of engineering, design, and user experience”.
