Have You Embraced Your Physical AI…? David Sable Read this article on LinkedIn to join the conversation Read on LinkedIn When was the last time you upgraded? I’m not referring to your hotel room… or your seat on a plane… or your phone… or even your OS. You… yourself? CES 2026 made one thing unmistakably clear: The real technology conversation is shifting… from Artificial Intelligence (AI as we currently know it) to Physical AI. NVIDIA and others are defining Physical AI as the moment intelligence leaves the cloud… leaves the chat parlor tricks… and becomes embedded in the real world. It’s no longer just a talking assistant… Not just smarter apps… Not just faster back-end workflows… but intelligence inside the things we touch, use, and depend on like cars, appliances, devices, factories, and infrastructure. As Jensen Huang said at NVIDIA GTC 2023, “The next wave of AI is embodied AI… intelligence that is in the physical world… interacting with people and machines.” And that is the shift… AI no longer lives somewhere abstract. It lives in cars, in refrigerators, in robots, and on factory floors. As WIRED reported in its CES 2024 coverage, “From smart factories to autonomous machines… AI is now powering physical decision making.” Which brings us to the real inflection point: Physical AI drives a stake through the heart of the old Internet-of-Things story. IoT was about connection. Physical AI is about capability. A sensor telling you you’re out of milk is connectivity. A system that understands your habits, your health goals, your preferences, and acts intelligently on your behalf… that’s Physical AI. The connection still matters…It always will. But intelligence in the thing is what makes it transformative.

Amplifying diverse voices isn’t just the right thing to do — companies with diverse teams are more likely to boost profitability and innovation. By empowering underrepresented groups, we’re breaking down digital barriers, improving accessibility, and building an industry that works for everyone.

The Innovation For All program at CES brought together the thought leaders and allies who are making this possible.

CTA Innovation For All Fund

Women and underrepresented entrepreneurs often receive less funding, which is why CTA invested $10 million — and announced an additional $5 million at CES 2025 — into venture funds and firms supporting diverse leadership and founders through our Innovation For All Fund. To unlock the next big idea, we must ensure everyone has an opportunity to innovate.

Portable lab-on-a-chip device uses cutting-edge science to enable consumers to understand

their skin’s aging trajectory and gain insights into the skincare that works best for their needs

LAS VEGAS, January 6, 2025 – Today at CES® 2025, L’Oréal Groupe unveiled L’Oréal Cell BioPrint, a tabletop hardware device that provides personalized skin analysis in just five minutes, using advanced proteomics – the study of how protein composition in the human body affects skin aging.

L’Oréal Cell BioPrint is made possible by L’Oréal’s Longevity Integrative Scienceä, a groundbreaking approach that reveals how mechanisms in the human body can affect skin’s appearance, and through an exclusive partnership with Korean startup NanoEnTek. L’Oréal Cell BioPrint produces a personalized skin assessment in minutes including:

• Skin’s BiologicalAge: How fast is skin aging? L’Oréal Cell BioPrint can calculate skin’s age and provide personalized advice on how to slow down the appearance of aging.

• IngredientResponsiveness: Will certain active ingredients work on one’s skin? L’Oréal Cell BioPrint minimizes guesswork by helping to predict responsiveness to certain key ingredients such as

• Shiftingfrom Reactive to Proactive Skincare: Is one’s skin prone to dark spots or enlarged pores? L’Oréal Cell BioPrint can help predict potential cosmetic issues before they become visible, enabling users to take proactive steps to help protect the beauty of their skin.

“At L’Oréal, we’re always looking toward the future of beauty, blending cutting-edge discoveries with our long-standing beauty expertise. With skin being the largest organ, and a key part of

people’s wellbeing, we are thrilled to unveil Cell BioPrint, an exclusive microfluidic lab-on-a-chip technology coupled with our century-long skin science leadership. With the Cell BioPrint device, we offer people the ability to discover deeper insights about their skin through specific biomarkers and to proactively address the beauty and longevity of their skin,” said Barbara Lavernos, Deputy CEO in charge of Research, Innovation and Technology at L’Oréal Groupe.

In Pursuit of Increased Personalization in Skincare

The growth of the global skincare market, which is projected to reach $125 billion in 20241, is driven by consumers who are continuously seeking more information about, and more efficacious products for, their unique skin. According to a recent US survey of 2,000 skincare users, nearly 80% reported relying on trial and error to determine what worked for them, with the average person reporting trying seven different cleansers before finding one they love2.

Using Advanced Biomarker Research to Pinpoint Beauty Accuracy

The advanced science in L’Oréal CellBioPrint is now being applied to skin intelligence thanks to decades of knowledge-building and innovation by L’Oréal’s Advanced Research team, which identified for the first time, unique biomarkers in the skin that can indicate key components of healthy-looking skin and longevity3.

The L’Oréal Cell BioPrint device also features NanoEntek’s exclusive microfluidic lab-on-a-chip technology, which leverages some of NanoEnTek’s 100+ patents to measure the presence of L’Oréal‘s groundbreaking protein biomarkers in five minutes. It works through a simple, non- invasive process comprised of the following steps:

1. Puta facial tape strip on one’s cheek, then place into buffer
2. Loadthe solution into the L’Oréal Cell BioPrint cartridge and insert it into the machine for
3. WhileL’Oréal Cell BioPrint processes the sample, the Skin Connect device takes several images of one’s face and a short questionnaire about skin concerns and aging is

L’Oréal Cell BioPrint is scheduled to pilot with a L’Oréal brand in Asia later in 2025.
