For Xbox gamers, the highlight of AMD's CES event was probably the sizzle reel that showed a 360-degree view of the Series X and all its ports. That is, until Microsoft clarified that the images were fake and came from a repository for 3D files. Thankfully, the chipmaker revealed and debuted a lot more things at CES, including a Dell G5 gaming laptop powered by its new "Renoir-H" Ryzen processor. It also launched the Ryzen 4000 chips, which will bring eight cores to ultraportables, as well as the Radeon RX 5600 XT GPU that's designed to deliver 1080p performance between 90 and 120FPS. The company also announced that its 64-core Threadripper 3990X will be available on February 7th for $3,990.

Samsung's Neon 'artificial humans' look like super-realistic video chatbots - CNBC

NEON artificial humans.

NEON

Samsung's STAR Labs research group announced a new "artificial human" called Neon early Tuesday morning at CES 2020.

Neon isn't a robot or a voice assistant like Siri or Alexa. Instead, it's a simulated human assistant that appears on a screen and learns about people to help it give seemingly intelligent and life-like responses -- think of it like an animated chatbot. Samsung claims the Neons will be able to provide a response to questions in milliseconds.

A spokesperson for STAR (Samsung Technology & Advanced Research) Labs told CNBC that the avatars will "help enhance interactions people have with certain jobs, such as friendly customer service; a worker that will be able to remember your name if you do yoga a certain amount of times during the week."

As the images show, Neons will be able to have different looks and attitudes.

"Over time, Neons will work as TV anchors, spokespeople or movie actors; or they can simply be companions and friends," the company said.

Neons will be available as services for companies and people to license or subscribe to, but Star Labs said it's not trying to replace humans, even if it seems like it. "We are not looking to replace human jobs, but rather enhance the customer service interactions, have customers feel as if they have a friend with Neons," a spokesperson told CNBC.

STAR's marketing rhetoric around the Neons is pretty extreme. The company says the Neons have their own emotions and memories, for instance, which would be an astounding and unprecedented feat of computer science. It's more likely that the creators can simply program them to simulate emotions and store data.

Without having seen one, it's unclear how "smart" Neons actually are, or how well they are able to understand people or empathize with a person in distress. Voice assistants Apple's Siri, Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant are also capable of learning a human's unique voice and responding, but they often make many mistakes.

Other companies have tried to replace or complement human workers in similar ways. SoftBank Robotics launched its smart robot Pepper in 2015. It was available for in-home purchase as well as in banks, healthcare facilities and restaurants, and was capable of serving as a receptionist.

"We plan to make Neon available to business partners as well to consumers all around the world," the company said in a FAQ sheet. "It is too early for us to comment on the business model or pricing for Neon, but we plan to beta launch Neon in the real world with selected partners later this year."

Without further details, it's tempting to dismiss this as a stunt product that will never see the light of day outside CES. We'll see if Samsung proves us wrong and actually releases the thing later this year.

Sony Unexpectedly Unveils Vision-S Concept Car At CES 2020 - Motor1 UK

We usually associate the Sony brand with the Walkman music player, the Vaio laptops, Bravia TVs or the PlayStation gaming console. While the tech giant does have a bunch of new products to show at CES this year from its typical area of expertise, the Tokyo-based company is also displaying something only very few expected – a car. It’s called the Vision-S and takes the shape of a sleek EV with a highly advanced autonomous driving system and a design that might make you think of a mashup between a Porsche Taycan and a Lucid Air.

Created primarily to showcase what Sony can bring to the table in terms of automotive technologies, the showcar has been developed in collaboration with big names such as Nvidia, Continental, Bosch, ZF, and Qualcomm. The zero-emissions saloon is equipped with no fewer than 33 sensors to detect people and objects not just outside of the car, but also inside that modern four-seat cabin with individual rear seats and giant glass roof.

Sony didn’t go into too many details about the seloon’s technical specification, but it did mention the Vision-S has a pair of 268-bhp (200-kilowatt) electric motors enabling a 0 to 62 mph (100 km/h) in a swift 4.8 seconds and a decent top speed of 149 mph (240 km/h).

A look at the screen-heavy dashboard design might remind you of the Honda E as the cute electric car has a similar layout, right down to the screens on the corners of the dash showing footage obtained by the mirror-replacing side cameras. Sony says the Vision-S concept has been equipped with 360 Reality Audio providing a superior sound quality from the speakers, including those embedded into the seats.

Sony didn’t develop the Vision-S on its own as it teamed up with Magna Steyr – manufacturers of the Toyota Supra, BMW Z4, Mercedes G-Class – for the car’s platform. That being said, the company didn’t say a word about the chances (if there are any) of transforming the concept into a production vehicle, but we’re at least hoping it will be virtually available in Gran Turismo Sport.
