Almost every industry was abuzz about artificial intelligence last year, and that hype only continued to grow at the 2025 annual Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas over the weekend.

“Every software engineer, every engineer, every creative artist, everybody who uses computers today as a tool will need an AI supercomputer,” said Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia.

Nvidia revealed a breakthrough computer, which packs the power of an AI brain into a package smaller than a cereal box, making it one of the standout innovations at CES.

While some products pushed technological boundaries, others refined existing concepts or made advanced technology more affordable.

Some highlights included a personal helicopter that slides out of the back of a van, a robotic lawn mower that now blows leaves and snow, a transparent TV, a cordless coffee maker, and the perfect washing machine for New Yorkers.

NY1 got a look at the washer-dryer, which is around the same size as a microwave and can complete a load from start to finish in 78 minutes.

But it wasn’t just new inventions being showcased.

Companies, including John Deere and Delta Air Lines, were there to highlight their latest advancements in data-driven technology.

Startups also were there to generate interest, like Glidance, which introduced a device designed to guide blind individuals using cameras and GPS.

“If we can take away that hesitation, I think we’ll see many, many more blind people out and about walking with confidence and with purpose and will be really feeling empowered to be out and about independently,” said Glidance CEO Amos Miller.

The event drew 140,000 attendees, who explored the offerings of nearly 5,000 exhibitors and discussed the future of technology.

Swedish Deputy Prime Minister Ebba Busch also delivered a message about inspiring the next generation.

“You, I, we, we all have a great responsibility to instill the values of hard work and curiosity in the next generation. Do not underestimate the power of what we model as admirable and worth striving for,” Busch said.

While it may have been difficult to think of hard work in a room full of robots that could replace humans one day, one thing was clear at the convention: there is always a new idea coming.
