The economy has sent many tech companies into a defensive crouch -- laying off employees and cutting spending. In many ways, that makes 2023 a good time for innovation. The choices that big players are forced to make will reveal more about their deep beliefs, and there is a bit more breathing room for adequately funded start-ups and smaller players to compete.

The heat of innovation appears to be focused on AI at the moment, but CES shows a great breadth of new ideas applied to practical (and not so practical) products.
