AI is here to stay, whether it’s a game-changer or just another tech buzzword. But if your PC is stuck in the pre-AI era, Lenovo has a fix that doesn’t involve replacing it. Introducing the AI Display with NPU Inside and the Lenovo AI Stick, two proof-of-concept devices that bring AI smarts to older computers.
AI Display with NPU Inside: A Smarter Monitor That Thinks
This isn’t just a screen; it’s a brainy assistant. With a discrete NPU (dNPU) built-in, the AI Display can process Large Language Models and execute AI-powered tasks without needing an AI-equipped PC. It can take commands, analyze intent, and assist with requests, making an old PC feel brand-new. It also automatically rotates, elevates, and tilts to keep the best viewing angle, so no more awkward screen adjustments.
Lenovo AI Stick: AI in a USB-C Plug
For those who prefer a plug-and-play solution, the Lenovo AI Stick packs a 32 TOPS NPU into a USB-C Thunderbolt dongle. Plug it into a PC to enable AI features like local Large Language Models and AI-enhanced graphics, or connect it to a wall socket for high-performance AI computing.
Lenovo’s AI gadgets prove that upgrading to AI doesn’t have to mean buying a new PC. Just plug in, power up, and let the AI do the thinking.
