First reported by CBS News, Aaron Mehdizadeh, owner of robot-rental company the Robot Studio, was on his way home from a trip to Las Vegas with his robot pal "Stewie" in tow.

Instead of relying on fixed routines, the AI-powered system adapts to each vehicle, collecting and analyzing data along the way. That data can generate real-time insights that can be shared across ATI's network of customers including dealerships and auto service shops.
Cibotica's flagship product, the Remy, is distinguished by its ingredient-agnostic technology, allowing it to dispense any ingredient accurately and efficiently. This system can assemble up to 300 bowls per hour and reduce labor costs by up to 30%, while also minimizing food waste by 50% through precise AI-driven portioning.
Sessions featuring Howard Wright (Nvidia), Rob Chu (AWS), and Eric Benhamou (Benhamou Global Ventures) cut through the noise to examine where AI is genuinely deployed at scale and where the real risks lie.
