From robots to gadgets, AI dominates this year's CES

LAS VEGAS: From AI-powered gadgets and robots to holograms and exoskeletons that help athletes run faster, the latest innovations and technological advancements were shown off in Las Vegas at the CES 2024.

Taking center stage at this year's show will be generative artificial-intelligence as gadget makers race to find consumer uses for the technology.

In devices for the visually impaired, and safety systems involving guns at schools, to facial-recognition software that can assess vitals, and cabin-monitoring systems inside autonomous cars, dozens of companies have planned announcements for the show about how they are building AI into their gadgets.

Funding for generative AI projects exploded last year, surging more than fivefold to $23.78 billion through the beginning of December from 2022, according to PitchBook data.

CES 2024, formerly known as the Consumer Electronics Show, runs Jan. 9-12.
