Chipmakers headline Monday afternoon and evening. NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang takes the stage at 1PM PT for about 90 minutes to showcase the company’s latest solutions. Hyundai speaks concurrently about in-cabin tech and robotics. Intel follows with a 3PM PT event focused on its Core Ultra Series chips, and AMD CEO Lisa Su will close the day with a keynote on upcoming AMD chip announcements.
