CES 2021: LG's press conference featured a virtual person presenting


Typically the presenters at a CES press conference don't get a lot of attention. In this case, a participant in LG's press event Monday wasn't human.

Wearing a pink hooded sweatshirt with the phrase "Stay punk forever," Reah Keem was among presenters highlighting some of the offerings from LG, ranging from appliances to personal technology.

She's not an actual person. LG describes her as a "virtual composer and DJ made even more human through deep learning technology." Keem was there to introduce the LG CLOi robot, which can disinfect high-traffic areas using ultraviolet light.

You can watch Reah make her debut during LG's press conference Monday morning, at roughly the 22-minute mark. She's even on Instagram.
