Update: Nvidia’s keynote is ongoing, but the RTX 50-series graphics cards have already been announced, starting with the RTX 5090.

Looking to buy a new high-end graphics card in 2025? It might be worth watching Nvidia’s CES 2025 keynote, as it may have all the details for the RTX 50-series, which could well be your next-gen upgrade. Even if you aren’t planning to buy any time soon, though, it may still be worth checking out, as Nvidia is expected to blow the doors off GPU performance with its next-gen designs, and show off more besides.

NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang Keynote at CES 2025

Like AMD’s keynote, Nvidia’s CES presentation with CEO Jensen Huang takes place later today, the day before the official start of CES 2025. It’s slated to start at 6:30 p.m. PT/9:30 p.m. ET on Monday, January 6. It’s building up hype for it now on the official Nvidia Twitch stream, with giveaways and a planned 50-hour online LAN party to celebrate the debut of its new 50-series GPUs.

The best place to watch the Nvidia CES keynote is on the official Nvidia YouTube channel, or the embedded stream above.

The Twitch stream should also be live during the event, but we typically find YouTube is more reliable.

What we expect from Nvidia’s CES 2025 keynote

The big news of Nvidia’s CES 2025 keynote is likely to not be much of a surprise at all. We all know that Nvidia will be debuting its 50-series Blackwell graphics cards, because Nvidia itself has told us, but we’ve also had a plethora of leaks and rumors about these cards for months now. They’re coming, and we’re going to get our first look at them at CES.

Which cards we’ll see remains a mystery, though Nvidia typically starts off a new generation with the highest-end cards, so alongside the hotly-anticipated RTX 5080, we are likely to see the allegedly-ridiculous RTX 5090 as well.

Nvidia is also likely to show off its latest AI developments, from further details on its Jetson Orin Nano Super miniature AI compute unit to its vehicular ambitions, robotics, and more gaming-facing tech, like DLSS 4, or more of Nvidia AI NPC technology.

Ask YouTube expands to mobile, web, and TVs across the US
YouTube’s AI search is now available across all major screens.
Ask YouTube on TV and desktop

Searching for something online by simply describing what you want is becoming pretty normal now. Google Search can do it. ChatGPT can do it. And YouTube has been slowly turning its own search box into something that works in a similar fashion.

YouTube has now announced a wider rollout for Ask YouTube, its conversational AI search tool. The feature is available to users in the U.S. across the web, mobile devices, and TVs. Mobile is the newest addition here, after Ask YouTube previously expanded to the web and smart TVs. Instead of putting a few keywords into the search bar, you can ask YouTube a complete question, describe what you are looking for, and then refine the results using follow-up questions.

It's raining frontier AI models. Soon after Anthropic set alarm bells ringing with its Claude Fable model at the summit of AI peformance, OpenAI answered with GPT-6 Astra. Not one to be left behind, Google released Gemini 4 Argon. The race is now getting hotter as Meta enters the fray with two new AI models in the Muse series: Wonder and Wonder Full. Cheesy naming aside, these Meta AI models mean business, or at least that's what the benchmark figures suggest. More importantly, these AI models are already making their way to Muse users.

Look, the MacBook Neo is a fine machine for building apps. And yes, I am utterly surprised
I am talking about apps with a generous dose of AI wizardry happening in the background.

In a span of just one week, I have built a full-fledged Android app for my Galaxy Z Fold 8 foldable phone, three Mac apps, and an iPhone app. And here's the fun part. The entire journey of creating these apps actually started on a phone, jumped to my MacBook Neo, compiled just fine, and ran flawlessly, without making me want to tear my hair off. The latest example? 

It built my calendar-clipboard hybrid app in Terminal within 20 seconds, and an on-device transcription app with a retro look in roughly 15 seconds. I used to think building desktop software would have me burning the midnight oil. The MacBook Neo did it in less time than I can pour myself a can of soda and take the first sip.
