CES 2025 is buzzing with innovations that blur the lines between sci-fi and reality. From AI-powered mirrors that track your vitals and connect you to doctors, to domestic robots that put Roombas to shame, the future is arriving fast. But amidst the dazzling tech, a crucial question emerges: are we ready?
