Lenovo turns to 'AI' to optimize its 2023 gaming laptops

Lenovo believes artificial intelligence will help differentiate its 2023 gaming laptops. Four new models at CES 2023 include the Lenovo LA AI chip, which the company says can dynamically adjust frame rates, increase the maximum heat threshold and boost overall performance. The LA AI chip is in the new Legion Pro 7, 7i, 5 and 5i (the "i" suffix denotes Intel variants) gaming laptops. Lenovo's AI Engine software uses the chip to deploy a "machine learning algorithm to tune system performance optimally." The company says FPS monitoring, higher thermal design power (TDP) and other tweaks boost performance and efficiency over previous generations.
