January 7, 2026, 2:40 AM EST. Lenovo unveiled Qira, a system-level, cross-device AI assistant designed to live across Lenovo laptops and Motorola phones. Debuting at CES, it signals Lenovo's boldest AI push yet by weaving intelligence into everyday devices. The plan blends on-device models with cloud infrastructure via Azure and OpenAI, while also incorporating Stability AI's diffusion tech and app partnerships like Notion and Perplexity. Lenovo emphasizes an modular approach rather than a single flagship model, to balance performance, quality, and cost. The effort comes from a centralized AI group, designed to work across the company's hardware lineup and avoid exclusive partnerships. With Moto AI and other experiments in its rearview, Qira aims to be a built-in, cross-device assistant that can act on your behalf throughout the day.
