Nvidia’s CEO Jensen Huang gave a keynote presentation to open CES 2026 in Las Vegas. The technology community was focused as Huang addressed the audience, considering Nvidia’s position as the foremost hardware company fueling the AI surge. Simultaneously, AMD, another significant contender in this sector, is also set to deliver its own keynote presentation. Leading up to the speech, Nvidia had refrained from revealing specific information about what Huang’s address would entail, apart from “what’s next in AI.” Nonetheless, any action from Nvidia carries weight in 2026, making the keynote something to observe. The presentation was scheduled to commence at 4 p.m. ET on Monday, Jan. 5. You can tune in to the livestream on CNET’s YouTube channel, which is also shown below.
