NVIDIA CES has given the world a peep into what the future holds! It had some amazing launches spanning from transparent, truly wireless televisions to flying car prototypes – NVIDIA CES had everything to capture the attention of any tech enthusiast. While there were bold calls and design launches in the tech space – it was AI that stole the show.
From glasses to supercomputers and even homes – AI was at the forefront of the NVIDIA celebration.
Here are the highlights:
LG’s AI-powered Homes
LG’s AI or “Affectionate Intelligence” initiative was officially unveiled during CES 2025. With this initiative, LG aims to create a smart home experience that is less artificial and more human-centric.
The highlights of LG’s Affectionate Intelligence include:
- LG ThinQ ON AI Home Hub: Serving as the central hub, ThinQ ON connects and controls various smart appliances and IoT devices. It understands natural language, allows for conversational voice commands, and learns user preferences to provide personalized experiences.
- AI-Powered Appliances: LG’s latest appliances, integrated with advanced AI, adapt to users’ routines and behaviors. For instance, washing machines can detect fabric types and soil levels to optimize wash cycles, enhancing convenience and efficiency.
- Collaborations for Enhanced Connectivity: LG has partnered with companies like Microsoft to integrate AI assistants, such as Copilot, into its smart TVs, aiming to revolutionize AI-enhanced living spaces. This collaboration seeks to create AI agents that predict and cater to customer needs, enhancing consumer experiences.
- Focus on Security with LG Shield: Recognizing the importance of data security, LG introduced LG Shield, a robust system designed to protect personal data within the smart home ecosystem. This ensures that as devices become more interconnected, user information remains secure.
While announcements regarding Home Hub and its smart TVs had been made before, the entire suite of products and services went live on CES Day 2.
