The washing machine with integrated AI broke my brain. This must be the most useless thing I've ever encountered in my entire life.

The smart crib seems particularly dystopian to me. We don't even need to wait for children to develop enough fine-motor functions to make use of smartphones or tablets, we can start collecting data on them before they even utter their first word!
How long before the smart cribs have ParentAI attached to them? Let the computer raise your child!
At least VLC had a neat table there

The popular open-source VLC video player was demonstrated on the floor of CES 2025 with automatic AI subtitling and translation, generated locally and offline in real time. Parent organization VideoLAN shared a video on Tuesday in which president Jean-Baptiste Kempf shows off the new feature, which uses open-source AI models to generate subtitles for videos in several languages.
Ok now that's cool. Since it's often all doom and gloom here, celebrating good tech is a nice change :)
