Is smarter always better? The debate on monitoring tech.

FULL STORY

Lenovo has announced a range of AI-driven concept devices at CES 2025 , including an AI-powered display prototype which promises to be more than just
a screen.

According to Lenovo (via Yanko Design ), this curved AI display adapts to
user behavior, monitoring a users' physical activity and nudges them when it detects extended periods of inaction.

Fitted with motors and advanced sensors, the monitor adjusts its tilt, rotation, and height to match the users posture in real-time.

Lenovo claims the focus of the AI display, which comes with a built-in voice control, is to create a healthier, more productive environment.

The company adds this display addresses privacy concerns by featuring sensors which blur the screen when the user steps away, protecting sensitive information from prying eyes.

Though Lenovo has yet to name this curved display, it is expected to debut under the ThinkVision brand, known for its premium monitors.

Though still in the prototype stage, Lenovo's monitor invites an important discussion about the privacy trade-offs were willing to make for smarter technology in our lives.
