At CES 2025, the term “AI” was everywhere. All the major brands were pushing it, including Samsung, TCL, Roborock, and more. Even the signage throughout the Las Vegas Convention Center featured AI-generated artwork.
When I heard about a new personalized AI wearable at the show called Bee, I couldn’t help but think of the AI fatigue we’ve seen ever since the failures of the Rabbit R1 (which debuted at last year’s CES) and the Humane AI Pin. Those products over-promised and under-delivered, solidifying the idea that most AI hardware probably just needs to be an app.
