Introducing a new set of Motorola AI concepts
In a bold step toward the future, Motorola unveiled four AI concepts that are set to redefine our daily experiences. From generative AI wallpapers to advanced AI privacy features and text summarization, the focus is on convenience and innovation. Along with the Prototype, Motorola introduces a generative AI model that allows users to extend their personal style to their smartphone by creating AI-generated wallpapers based on their outfit choices by simply uploading or capturing an image. Additionally, the company also revealed its development of a personal voice/text assistant for PCs and smartphones powered by a large language model. Named MotoAI, the concept handles tasks like answering questions, drafting messages, and scheduling, all while processing data locally on the device for enhanced privacy. Moreover, recognizing the demand for real-time document scanning, Motorola introduced another AI concept model that enhances the Doc Scanner capability, ensuring crisp and clear images with minimized wrinkles and shadows.
