NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang’s CES keynote was a harbinger of things to come – both for the world and at the show itself
Walking around CES for three days, the talk of the show was NVIDIA — but more specifically, the artificial intelligence that its technology can enable. During CEO and founder Jensen Huang’s 90-minute kickoff keynote in front of a huge 6,000-person audience, he explained how AI is advancing at an incredible pace.
“It started with perception AI — understanding images, words, and sounds,” Huang said. “Then generative AI — creating text, images, and sound. Now, we’re entering the era of physical AI — AI that can proceed, reason, plan, and act.”
Security technology expert Pierre Bourgeix, who walked the show with our editors this year, was in attendance and was awed by what Huang presented.
“The power of AI has now become even more transformational,” Bourgeix says. “NVIDIA has removed the boundaries of computing. From DIGITS to the new world model, NVIDIA is at the forefront of modernizing industries. The security industry will be affected by what NVIDIA has created. Industrial control and management systems will inevitably incorporate AI-powered security technology to solve business and operational concerns.”
From Huang’s keynote moving forward, it seemed there wasn’t a booth or a conversation at CES 2025 that avoided the AI topic
