August 2025 - Hybrid AI in action: Real lessons from Lenovo’s own digital transformation

We’ve said repeatedly that we’re past the AI hype cycle, and we mean it. The technology is pervasive, widely adopted, and racing forward with new models and applications. Still, businesses clamor for clear ROI (as we’ve discussed here in What the tech?), and skepticism lingers. For some organizations, deeper AI adoption and literacy remain a key hurdle to experiencing real transformation. 

New research from MIT (PDF here) threw fuel on that skeptical fire: despite heavy investment, “95% of organizations are getting zero return.” The study promptly went viral, though the findings and methodology have since been challenged. Still, the “high adoption, low transformation” callout from the study points to a need for more focused, deliberate, and scalable deployment. And, of course, proof

Leading by AI-powered example 

At Lenovo, we offer our customers a comprehensive portfolio of hybrid AI technology, spanning devices, infrastructure, and enterprise solutions. But we also demonstrate the unprecedented productivity AI enables by AI by pioneering and embracing solutions in-house. We call these initiatives Lenovo powers Lenovo: using our own AI technologies to radically enhance operations. These tailored solutions are developed by experts who know the technology, the opportunity, and how best to empower our employees. 

The results? We can deploy AI devices up to 98% faster to employees. Our Supply Chain Intelligence integrates more than 800 data sources to perform 1,500+ tasks every day and uncover otherwise invisible insights—with decision-making accelerated by 60%. Our AI and IoT combine forces to reduce HVAC energy costs by 30%. We’re also accelerating legal workflows through generative AI assistants. And that’s just a small sample of our AI in action

In all instances, the goal isn’t just productivity and efficiency; AI also frees our employees to focus on the strategy, oversight, and high-impact decisions that demand their expertise. 

By testing, validating, and scaling AI internally, we find real productivity gains and ROI where many organizations may fall short. Our clear hybrid-AI strategy, investment in innovation, and operational excellence drive strong global performance—and provide a blueprint for other organizations to thrive. And hey, if you aren’t sure how to unleash AI, we’re here to help. 😎
