CES Tech Talk

What if the room you sleep in could tell you something is off before you feel it? James Kotecki talks with Sam Yang, CEO and co-founder of Xandar Kardian, about a baseball-sized radar sensor that reads heartbeat and breathing from your nightstand or wall, with no camera, no microphone and nothing to wear. Built for hospitals and nursing homes, Sam says it has flagged changes in people’s vitals days before something went wrong, and it’s now coming to consumers. Hear why he says radar can measure breathing instead of estimating it, how sensing like this could show up in appliances and phones and what’s coming at CES 2027. First in our three-part miniseries, “AI in Action."

In 1999, Napster put every song within reach. Now it's trying to do the same for expertise. Chief Product Officer, Ziv Navoth, joins James Kotecki to talk about how that name survived, why Napster's AI agents come with faces and why "agent manager" is a job that didn't exist a year ago.

Roblox isn't just a game anymore. It's where 123 million people spend three hours a day building, shopping and figuring out who they are.

Stephanie Latham, VP of Global Brand Partnerships and Advertising at Roblox, joins us to unpack how the platform is rewriting the rules of brand marketing: an avatar that can matter more than a profile picture, Rolling Stones merch that turns into music discovery and Fenty letting its own community vote on a new product before it ever hit shelves at Sephora. If you think this is still just blocky avatars and kids' games, this conversation will change your mind.

CES Tech Talk is back for Season 10, gearing up for CES 2027!

In this kickoff episode, iJustine and Brian Tong break down what's coming to CES 2027, from AI and robotics to energy, health tech and even a new award category for tech-made art. If you want the real picture of where tech is headed this year, not just one trend, this is the conversation.

Protection and performance don’t have to be a trade-off. IAS' CEO, Lisa Utzschneider, and TikTok’s VP Product Management & Head of Monetization Product Solutions & Operations, David Kaufman, explain how a leading global measurement and optimization company and a fast‑growing social platform work together to ensure digital ads are viewable, human and adjacent to brand‑safe, brand‑suitable content.
