PopSugar CEO Says VR Is Overhyped, and Self-Driving Cars Will Scale

CES vet Brian Sugar shares thoughts from show floor

Brian Sugar, co-founder and CEO of PopSugar, has spent the past 16 years attending CES and has seen a lot of tech come and go. So when he feels the pace of innovation around things like artificial intelligence and self-driving cars has never been more intense, you should probably take note.

"We've been migrating away from a consumers electronics show to something more like The Jetsons," said Sugar, adding, "We're really starting to see things in the future that are going to happen."

Sugar, a self-declared car guy, was particularly bullish on the advances in electric and self-driving cars, which he's increasingly seeing on the streets of San Francisco and which he believes will scale "way faster" than most people think.
