Call me old fashioned, but I still think pressing a button is easier than talking to a device. Pretty sure this is actually objectively true as well, in terms of energy used and muscle action required.

Analog keyboards on phones? Now that's innovation.

[epithos]

We've been been running "driverless" tractors for over a decade. Gps and image systems have been good enough to drive back and forth 99% of the time. But when you have a million dollar machine you still put a 15/hr human in it to grease it and hit the breaks in an emergency.

The world we live in:
"WHOA! I can just say 'What's the weather like this afternoon' and the device will tell me the weather forecast, rather than me having to open the app. So much easier!"

The world we'd live in if voice recognition had been invented before touch screens:
"WHOA! I can just tap this little picture on that glass pane to open the weather forecast, rather than me having to formulate a whole sentence. So much easier!"

The rabbit looks amazing! I've been waiting for a device to implement an extra layer of frustration and inaccuracy between me and my purpose built UIs. Plus being half mute, this will save me from those rare occasions where my environment is quiet and my throat is working!

[ryandury]

Despite an absolute revolution in AI the featured use-cases here are mostly meh. Coolest thing you featured were the AI- Binoculars. A great example of adding AI to an existing product rather than building a product around AI.

[forestlaw]

I tried some of the "coding killers" and it is the most convoluted IDE I have ever seen.

[alexandrecosta]

The "we dont need programmers, we just use natural language" motto has been around for ages. The SQL language promised to do just that, and it's one of the most abstracted areas in web development because of how convoluted it can get at times.

[FireFox]

So far the most brilliant thing to come out of CES is your ability to call people out on their bs.

[Compins]

We are just at the halfway point of January, and yet I'm already **this** close to declaring "AI will replace UI" the shittiest take of the year.
It's cool that voice assistants can navigate through my apps, but unless my hands are busy, or I need to focus on something else, it'll always be easier to just whip out my phone and do whatever myself

[Einygmar]

The term AI became virtually synonymous with machine learning and gets really overused these days. The technology is really interesting as a general data-driven approach to solving certain problems (Machine vision, Natural language processing, Statistics, etc) but putting it into everything feels more like a gimmick. The added interactivity could be interesting in the short term, but it would be too tedious to use routinely so many features would probably be ignored in the long term.

[elirane]

The coolest thing I've see in this year CES are the see through TV's. Not for home use, but I can definitely see them being used in all kind of commercial spaces like

[immortalpuffin]

"Al Gore predicting ice caps will completely melt by 2013" got me

[sushantbhargav]

Reminded me of a running joke in India, the bank ATMs were Gaslighting customers to not print the receipt because of the environment, while the ATM room was running 2 ACs, in rainy season, at 3AM .

[nicocesar]

"Reciprocating devices"😂😂 damn AI has us grabbed by the balls

[adye]

People forget how slow it is to speak out loud command after command. When considering the last device in the video, this will be a roadblock for many users.

[lizp]

transparent oled tech has been around for quite a while, but it's just now coming down to consumer price ranges. it's best suited for commercial use (eye catching ads complementing static window displays), i can't see wide adoption in the home though, sort of like that 3d tv thing they were doing a decade ago

[pavolkomlos]

Ballie can literally stroll around your home. Alexa is already listening and now you want a literal spy robot in your house. What if it gets hacked by robbers?

[KyriosHeptagrammaton]

If this is the best they have to offer maybe AI doesn't actually have a use case.

[Zirror]

For EVs, demand is not slowing but demand growth. So last year EVs "only" sold 50% more than the previous year in absolute numbers, where as the years before it grew by more than 50%. Probably because the base number was smaller each year. Most importantly, demand is still growing (more EVs sold in absolute term each year), but it's growing less fast, which is totally normal in a product life cycle.
