It should come as no surprise that AI is the talk of CES 2024 — the Consumer Electronics Show — in Las Vegas this week. The AI-infused products that were announced run the gamut: From Samsung, there’s a new smart robot vacuum that can tell the difference between surfaces, find stains and steam them. Holoconnects launched something called the Holobox, which is a phone booth-sized box that’s capable of displaying a holograph of the person you’re talking to with no delay — and to use it you just need internet and electricity. Other offerings include a wearable for pets that can alert owners of potential health issues by monitoring vitals, and a smart mirror that can analyze a person’s emotions and deliver light therapy and guided meditations accordingly.

Today we’re taking a look at an Our Place collab, new ski-touring bindings and some bone broth. This is Today in Gear.

Warm Up With Bone Broth

Hear us out: When it’s too late in the day for coffee, but too early for a cocktail there is value in having a third category of beverage that can help break up the day. This Chicken Bone Broth ($12) from Porter Road is a strong contender in this category. Every quart is made by simmering two pounds of bones for 24 hours to offer up a rich flavor. Use it for soups and stews or sip it for a nourishing afternoon beverage.

Get That Bread

The Hero Bread Welcome Box ($70) is exactly what it sounds like — a box of bread — with one twist. The box includes white and seeded breads, flour tortillas, and burger and hot dog buns. To complement that assortment, there’s a reusable sandwich bag, a wooden condiment spreader, a bread knife and a cutting board. The twist? Hero Bread’s products have zero (or near-zero) net carbs, no sugar, and less than half the calories of traditional baked goods.
