Artificial intelligence (AI) took center stage at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2024, held in Las Vegas this week. The event provided an opportunity for technology companies and startups to showcase their latest devices and innovations to journalists and retail executives. While CES is known for a mix of updated product lines and odd inventions, the prominent theme this year was the incorporation of AI into a wide range of devices.
One of the key highlights of CES 2024 was the widespread implementation of AI in various products. Although AI is not a new technology, the recent surge of interest in ChatGPT, a generative AI model, has made it a more prominent option for developers. This technology has been embedded in a multitude of products that are set to hit the marketplace.
For instance, several new Windows laptops will feature a CoPilot button, providing users with instant access to a ChatGPT-powered interface in Windows 11. This marks the first update to a Microsoft keyboard in 30 years. Samsung has also incorporated AI features in its 8K television models, using AI to upscale images and adjust TV settings based on the content being displayed. Volkswagen has followed suit by adding ChatGPT to its line of electric vehicles, enabling users to interact with a chatbot for answers and travel suggestions while on the move.
Aside from AI integration, robots and automatons were another highlight of CES 2024. Oro showcased its Dog Companion robot, equipped with two-way audio and a video screen, allowing pet owners to remotely interact with their pets. The robot’s AI processing is designed to learn a puppy’s behavior patterns and offer stimulation or comfort when the owner is not present. Ballie, a personal assistant robot shaped like a ball, has also been reintroduced with enhanced capabilities. Acting as an Alexa on wheels, the new model can control smart home devices and display images through a built-in projector.
In addition to conventional uses, AI is being incorporated into everyday tasks in unique ways. The DeRucci Anti-Snore Smart Pillow, for example, tracks a user’s sleep patterns and adjusts itself to prevent snoring. Seer Grill’s Perfecta, on the other hand, grills meat vertically and relies on its AI processor to learn the user’s preferred cooking style. Capella claims to have developed a phone app that uses machine learning to translate a baby’s cries, helping parents determine the reason behind their child’s distress.
The integration of AI into a wide range of devices showcased at CES 2024 demonstrates the growing significance of this technology in improving user experiences. With advancements in AI and its increasing availability, it is likely that consumers will see AI become an integral part of their daily lives. As technology continues to evolve, AI’s presence in consumer electronics is expected to expand, revolutionizing industries and enhancing various aspects of user interactions.
