local Large Language Model (LLM) built on
Meta’s Llama 3.1, enabling real-time interaction with a user’s personal knowledge base (PKB) without relying on cloud processing. This offers enhanced data privacy, as all interactions remain locally stored on the device. Users can employ Lenovo AI Now to automate and simplify a wide range of tasks, from document management and online meeting transcriptions to device control and content generation. The platform’s intuitive AI assistant supports natural language interaction, allowing users to quickly search on device documents, local images, or generate text summaries based on specific queries.
Lenovo AI Now also integrates
PC assistant functionalities, which allow users to configure their devices through natural language prompts. For example, users can adjust settings like display brightness or enable productivity tools such as eye care mode, all by simply asking Lenovo AI Now. With the
knowledge assistant, users can drop files into their personal knowledge base, search within them, and even ask specific questions to retrieve key insights, making Lenovo AI Now a powerful tool for organizing large amounts of data.
Additionally, Lenovo AI Now encourages a
rich ecosystem of both Lenovo and third-party AI applications, further extending the platform’s capabilities to support office work, creative tasks, and even gaming[2]. It empowers professionals, students, and creatives alike with AI tools that can summarize documents, draft responses, generate visuals, and much more—all while enabling a smooth, fast experience on the local device, as well as leveraging the power of the cloud.
With its local LLM and designed to leverage heterogeneous computing architecture, combining CPU (central processing unit), GPU (graphics processing unit), and NPU (neural processing unit) power, Lenovo AI Now delivers high-speed performance while minimizing battery drain. As a fully integrated solution, Lenovo AI Now also provides seamless support for
after-sales services, device recommendations, and customer support through Lenovo’s virtual assistant, which is embedded within the platform for instant help and troubleshooting.
Lenovo AI Now is designed with robust security measures to help protect user data and privacy. The personal knowledge base stores all personal data locally on the device, safeguarded by a strong security algorithm. Besides the local AI function, users also have access to cloud-based services to expand AI scenarios. In this instance, users have full control over when cloud services are accessed, and explicit consent is required every time cloud data is used.
Additionally, Microsoft Azure AI Content Safety is embedded in Lenovo AI Now, enabling real-time monitoring and filtering of harmful content. Lenovo AI Now has also received a marketing claim verification from UL Solutions for our AI algorithm, verified for data collection, storage, protection and exposure, and is the first AI application to achieve the UL Solutions AI Model Transparency Benchmark Diamond rating, resulting in a UL Verified Mark for AI Model Transparency, further demonstrating how Lenovo prioritizes security and privacy.
