The AI/XR Podcast January 3rd, 2025 ft. Gary Shapiro, CEO of CES

Charlie, Ted, and Rony have a wide-ranging preview of CES 2025 and what to expect from the coming year from Gary Shapiro, CEO of the Consumer Technology Association which owns CES. To be sure, we'll be seeing a lot more AI in everything. Mobility, robotics, drones, wearables and healthtech are going to have a strong presence this year as well. Gary has a new book, Pivot or Die, which takes a look at the boom in productivity that companies are going to experience with AI. He is optimistic about the potential for the new administration to create a business environment with reduced regulation and greater freedom to pursue M&A, which will stimulate venture investments in new technologies. This, Gary says, does not mean no regulation, it means the right kind of regulation.Thank you to our sponsor, Zappar!Don't forget to like, share, and follow for more!
