If you\u2019ve been following the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) this year, you\u2019ve probably noticed the ubiquitous presence of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Indeed, there hardly seems to be a corner of the exhibition that AI hasn\u2019t touched. From shiny new wearables to high tech appliances, the formerly sci-fi concept is deeply embedded in just about every product on show. More impressively, there is a growing legion of AI companions, toys, and robots that are expected to soon become an intrinsic part of everyday life.<\/p>\n

However, as all things novel and cutting-edge, the surge in AI applications has led to some rather interesting innovations. Yes, we are now seeing AI in some least expected places, ranging from hair styling tools to household cleaning gadgets. Often, these are instances where even product manufacturers themselves seem uncertain about just what makes their products \u201cintelligent.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

At this point, you may wonder about the extent to which this overarching trend goes. Indeed, the question is worth considering: just how far can we take this AI implementation? Delving into the vast and varying landscape of new tech at CES 2026, we can find some examples that might make us question whether everything that can be labeled \u201csmart\u201d should be.<\/p>\n

To paint a picture of how AI is showing up in unusual, and sometimes downright perplexing ways, let\u2019s look at one example that has stood out this year: The Glyde smart hair clippers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

On the face of it, Glyde presents a product that looks perfectly normal. It\u2019s a hair trimmer, exactly what one would expect from such a device, visually speaking. Yet, beyond its familiar facade lies a component of tech sophistication \u2013 integrated artificial intelligence.<\/p>\n

Are you bemused, intrigued, somewhat skeptical? Quite a few people might share these reactions. It\u2019s a case where the line between a brilliant use of modern technology and an overreach into territory where it doesn\u2019t necessarily belong becomes blurred. This scenario offers a clear snapshot of the current industry trend \u2013 the race to incorporate artificial intelligence into virtually every product one could think of.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

As we move deeper into the era of AI, it\u2019s crucial to maintain a discerning eye. It\u2019s exciting to see the extent of possibilities this technology can open. Yet, as in the case of Glyde\u2019s smart clippers, it\u2019s an important reminder to question what truly benefits from becoming \u201cintelligent.\u201d<\/p>\n

So, as you explore this year\u2019s CES and beyond, let\u2019s keep the discernment alive. After all, the true value of AI should be determined by the meaningful enhancement it brings to our lives and not the mere novelty of its application.<\/p>\n
