The artificial intelligence (AI) is the key concept this year for thousands of companies that present their technological innovations at the Consumer Electronics Fair (CES), which is being held this week in Las Vegas (USA), and that they have used some branch of this technology to enhance their products, from robots and televisions to mirrors and barbecues.
In just over a year, thanks to the tremendous success of ChatGPT’s generative AI chatbot – which was followed by other chats from technology giants such as Google and Microsoft – the concept of AI went from the world of science fiction to being a tool in the day to day of many, some even without knowing it.

The AI craze has reached such a point that it has even begun to change computer keyboards: Microsoft announced at the fair that Dell’s XPS laptop will have a specific key that takes the user to Microsoft’s “co-pilot,” generative AI. which can summarize documents, create images and search for information.
An AI that can use external applications triumphs
The startup Rabbit presented its device at the fair R1; The concept of this “intuitive companion” – which fits in your hand, has microphones, cameras and a 2.88-inch touch screen – is similar to that of the voice assistants Alexa, from Amazon, or Siri, from Apple, but with a greater capacity for action.
The smart machine can generate answers to any user questionlike ChatGPT, but it is also capable of ordering food, an Uber, playing music or sending an email, for example, without the user needing to interact with any additional interface.
The public at the fair, both in person and those following the announcements from a distance, showed enormous interest in R1, which costs $199.
“When we started building R1, we said internally that we would be happy if we sold 500 devices on launch day. In 24 hours, we have already surpassed (this goal) 20 times! 10,000 units on day 1!”, the company shared on its networks this Wednesday, which indicated that stocks have been exhausted but will have a second batch with deliveries between April and May.
Home robots with AI
Robots have already taken the job of several household appliances; For example, they have made vacuum cleaners smart and autonomous, but the goal of titans like LG or Samsung is toSmall robots will soon patrol the home to take care of tasks and keep users and their pets company.

Samsung rolled around the CES Balliea yellow domestic rolling robot the size of a ball that, according to the specialized press, could be released to the public this year.
Ballie has microphones and cameras and can tell the user everything that happens in their home by sending messages, videos and photos.
It also has a projector that it can use to communicate with its owners, for example, displaying a “welcome” message on the floor when someone enters the home.
Rival LG also presented at CES a smart home robot that seeks to create a “workless home,” called an “AI agent,” which has two legs with wheels and can “move, learn, understand and participate in complex tasks.” .
In this case, the robot has a “face” – a screen – from which it can transmit its “emotions”, which makes the robot much more endearing.
According to the specialized press, this robot could reach users in 2025.
In neither case was it announced what price these domestic machines will have.
AI in the kitchen and bathroom
Generative AI also seeks to make its way into the bathroom: Baracoda exhibited at the fair the latest updates to its smart mirror that uses this technology to increase users’ self-confidence and your mood with positive messages and meditations.
And he puts on his apron in the kitchens with products from Chef AI or Seer Grills. In the first case, it is an air fryer that can analyze the type of food on its tray and cook it for the appropriate time and temperature without the user giving it any type of information.
Meanwhile, Seer Grills’ AI barbecues can cook meats, fish and pizzas to customers’ taste on their own and much faster than normal, sometimes in a matter of minutes.
“The speed is due to the neural fire technology we use, which can cook food in 360 degrees – that is, the entire piece at the same time – and its vertical heaters can reach 1,652 degrees Fahrenheit (about 900 degrees) in a matter of seconds. degrees Celsius),” one of the company spokespersons explains to EFE.
