The annual event is expected to attract more than 130,000 attendees and over 4,000 exhibitors from more than 150 countries and regions, including over 1,200 startups, according to the Consumer Technology Association (CTA), organizer of the CES.

Semiconductor giants will be promoting their latest AI processors for data centers and edge devices such as laptops, smartphones and headsets. Other chip companies may pitch their latest wireless, memory, power management and other integrated circuits.

Chipmakers will not be the only companies focusing on AI. Automakers, retailers, and home appliance manufacturers are also expected to show how they are using AI to power their latest products.

Qualcomm President and CEO Cristiano Aman will deliver a keynote speech at the tech show on the potential for generative AI, and how on-device generative AI can make devices respond to individuals' input in ways that transform the user experience.
