#122 - CES highlights and CAD Software

The ChatGPT Report

The episode of TheChatGPTReport focuses primarily on CES 2025 highlights and new AI developments, with the biggest news being NVIDIA's Project DIGITS - a $3,000 personal AI supercomputer with the size of a Mac Mini but 1,000x more powerful than a typical laptop. The host also covered exciting developments in AI-powered CAD software, particularly Zoo's new solution that could revolutionize mechanical engineering by reducing design time by up to 50x.

Other notable mentions included Anthropic's potential $2 billion fundraising at a $60 billion valuation, Microsoft's $80 billion AI investment plan, and an interesting statistic showing that only 5% of workers use AI tools extensively. Ryan emphasized that many of the CES announcements, while promising, would take time to reach consumers, including Jensen Huang's note that practical quantum computers are likely 20 years away.

The episode included a spotlight on creator Jason Zada for his short film made with Google's Veo 2, demonstrating the growing capabilities of AI in creative fields.
