CES 2018 Day 4 Awaits a Killer Closing Party
After 3 days of action-packed performance, exhibitors in CES 2018 are packing up to head home. While innovative robots (some of them slightly crazy) and concept cars blew our minds, today it's more about winning awards and celebrating innovation.
- “It’s the year of A.I. and conversational interfaces,” said J. P. Gownder, an analyst for Forrester Research. He’s quite right because AI is no longer confined to robots. This year, even cat litter boxes got an AI upgrade.
- While some robots decided to dance to your tunes, others simply won’t listen.
- Another important highlight is the hefty price tag trend. From a $4K treadmill to a $16K laundry robot, we wonder if these prices will only go up.
