CES 2025: LG to introduce on-device AI features with upcoming Gram laptops

LG's new AI features include a Microsoft's Recall-like "Time Travel" feature which will allow users to revisit web pages, documents, videos and audio files

South Korean electronics maker LG has announced that it will be unveiling its new LG Gram laptops at the Consumer Electronics Show 2025, which is scheduled to take place in Las Vegas, US from January 7. LG has said that its new Gram line of laptops will be the company's first devices to feature on-device artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities with LG's proprietary "Gram AI technology."

 

LG Gram AI: What is new

 

LG's own suite of AI features that it collectively calls Gram AI will include a "Gram chat" service. Gram chat will work on-device using AI algorithms to process and analyse data locally without requiring an active internet connection. This feature will be powered by a small language model that has been derived from LG AI Research's EXAONE large language model. Gram chat will also enable Microsoft's Recall-like "Time Travel" feature which the company said will allow users to revisit web pages, documents, videos and audio files.

 

Taking a hybrid approach, LG will also offer paid, cloud-based AI services through "Gram chat Cloud." This subscription-based AI service will be powered by OpenAI's GPT-4o AI model and will offer more detailed and comprehensive responses to queries. Additionally, Gram chat Cloud will be able to integrate with personal calendar and email services, offering a smoother workflow. LG said that Gram chat Cloud service will be offered for no additional cost for the first year with new Gram laptops.
