Lenovo on Tuesday launched its smartest ultraslim PC - Yoga S940 with Artificial intelligence (AI) and advanced audio and display technologies. The laptop has the ability to automatically filter out most ambient noise and blur out distracting backgrounds during video calls. This means that your video calls are not affected by annoying sounds in the surroundings. The AI-powered sensors can also detect the absence of user and auto-lock the display to protect the data from others seeing it. Interestingly, the laptop also detects and alerts the user when any uninvited person is shoulder surfing on the screen.
