It is halftime.

Welcome back to Bloomberg Tech, a very special edition live in Las Vegas for CES.

Let's take a look at these markets because, look, we are being ruled to a certain extent by fresh geopolitical tension, but not the last 100.

We remain in gains up a quarter of a percentage point.

Yes, there's all eyes on memory makers.

Yes, there's all eyes on NVIDIA and AMD post some of their announcements.

But we want to put all our eyes on one particular stock right now, Ed, because Mobileye yesterday had a pretty key announcement.

a new deal a deal to the tune of 900 million dollars combining cash mobilized shares to buy mentee robotics and the deal is expected to be closing in the first quarter of 2026. we're still in gains up 300 but we're significantly off of our highs as the market digests what this deal really means we've got the perfect person to be asking what it means amnon shashua is here with us mobile eye ceo it is wonderful to have some time with you sir wonderful to be with you carolina dead

Why is it right for you to go from autonomous driving into the world of robotics?

I mean, of course, in many ways, people would say you'd think that because you helped found Mentee, your son's work at Mentee.

Help me get comfortable with that because many have thrown such accusations Elon Musk's way sometimes in previous acquisitions and not liked it.

You and I have been talking for years about, you know, mobilize existing footprint and then it's go to market in the future.

What's the go to market for Mentee?

You would essentially just sell the hardware?
