AI to dominate this year's CES, even without OpenAI's Altman on hand
OpenAI boss Sam Altman will not appear at the CES trade show in Las Vegas next week. OpenAI's influence at the show despite Altman's physical absence is reminiscent of Apple and its founder Steve Jobs, whose clout was felt despite him avoiding the show, with many firms jockeying to display gadgets compatible with the company's sleek products. Altman is widely regarded as the poster child for the AI frenzy that has gripped the tech industry for the past year.
