Welcome to Better Offline&rsquo;s coverage of the 2026 Consumer Electronics Show - a standup radio station in the Palazzo Hotel with an attached open bar where reporters, experts and various other characters bring you the stories from the floor.&nbsp; In Thursday&rsquo;s second episode, Ed is joined by actress and standup comedian Chloe Radlciffe, Garrison Davis of It Could Happen Here, writer Westin Lee, Robert Evans of Behind The Bastards, Ed Ongweso of the Tech Bubble Newsletter, and tech writer Rob Pegoraro to talk about how this CES feels like something is missing, building things for actual people, how everybody is talking about &ldquo;incremental&rdquo; improvements in AI, OpenAI&rsquo;s similarities to Theranos, and the problematic nature of mass-automation.
