For instance, even if you have things like multifactor authentication in place, a phishing scam or even some malware varieties could potentially give an attacker access to your email… and all the data your messages contain, just sitting in your inbox.

Over the past few years I’ve been tuning into the Consumer Electronics Show, a massive yearly expo in Las Vegas where exhibitors show off their latest and greatest in consumer electronics. The event covers everything you can imagine, from smart kitchen appliances to new tablets and phones, conceptual car models to personal flying vehicles. It’s a fun spectacle, and even if you don’t care for technology too much, you can play a really interesting version of Bingo and try to predict what common household objects are going to get screens on them this year. One particular new product stole the show though; the Rabbit R1 AI device. I think it’s worth talking about.
