Well, this year is off to a roaring start with two Turo-rented electric vehicles leading the charge in both the New Orleans and Las Vegas terror events. Can you imagine pimping out your brand new Tesla Cybertruck to Turo for rental and being told that your vehicle was blown up by a Green Beret gone mad? And now the wild fires of Los Angeles..
Rather than dwell on such profound issues, we choose instead to focus on topics like what is hot at this year’s Consumer Electronics Show, which also happens to be in Las Vegas. We take a look at some innovations for the home, including robot vacuums with claw for cleaning and picking up out of place matter, (i.e. socks and underwear), fridges and microwaves with big screens, smarter glasses, and yes, self-flying balls! And did I mention the CES-announced nVidia super computer on a chip for $250? Brains for our robots!
We also look at how robotaxis will be getting more of a foothold in cities across America this year, from San Francisco to LA, Dallas, Austin, and Atlanta. Uber and Lyft are in the picture, working with the car manufacturers to provide ride services. Adoption looks to be swift, with Waymo passengers in California skyrocketing from 20K rides in 2023 to 500K rides in 2024! And we wrap it all up in a cyber bow with our thoughts about how democracy could evolve with a little help from our silicon-based friendz..Enjoy!
