Day 2 of Computex — genuinely didn't know where to look.

The booths this year aren't exhibitions. They're art. But not the most spectacular art exhibition you've ever seen — they're the immediate future. Walking through the halls, I could clearly feel how hard the designers were working to make everyone feel this "future" — something beyond our understanding and imagination. I loved every second of it.

01 — Energy

AI needs power — a lot of it, and stable. Water resources were also on the agenda for major officials. Taiwan's security was discussed openly and directly: as capital flows in and Taiwan's semiconductor industry scales up, the people most concerned about Taiwan's safety aren't always Taiwanese. This isn't hyperbole. It's already fact.

02 — AI Getting Physical

Compared to last year, AI physical applications were visibly present in over 80% of booths. Beyond the familiar robots, robotic arms, and robot dogs — what I cared about was the experience: tactile, spatial, imaginative. Screens are still 2D, but the digital is starting to break out of the screen — breaking frame, if you will. There's a whole robotic area in TWTC now. Computex outgrew itself this year.

03 — Futurism + Sustainability

As someone who loves tech-art, I was thrilled by how 2026 presented futurism — completely different from the 60s aesthetic we used to associate with the future. This is something entirely new: digital flowers that breathe, gentle neon gradients that are easy on the eyes. The designers aren't ignoring the contradiction between neon and moss, screens and soil — they're making it the whole vibe. We are creating something brand new.

04 — Jensen Huang

He is now the hottest IP in global tech — signing queues, merch, crowd energy, memes. This is stan culture, full stop. Someone is very intentionally building that man into a tech IP the way K-pop builds an idol. But honestly, who can resist a tech nerd who's fluent in both English and Taiwanese?

Computex 第二天——真的不知道要看哪裡！

今年的攤位根本不是展覽，是藝術。但與其說是最精彩的美術展覽，不如說這即將是不遠的未來。走在展間，非常清楚感受到，設計師們很用力在讓大家感受這「未來」——那種 beyond our understanding and imagination 的感覺。我太喜歡了。

01 — 能源

AI 需要大量、穩定的電力；水資源也是大官員們都有提到的關注焦點。臺灣的安全更是被開門見山地討論，畢竟隨著資金流入，臺灣半導體產業的規模越來越龐大，最關心臺灣安全的有時真的不一定是台灣人！這不是誇飾，已經是事實了。

02 — AI 實體化

比起去年，今年清楚看到 AI 實體應用落地在 80% 以上的攤位。除了大家熟知的機器人、機械手臂、機器狗，我更關心的是體驗：觸覺、空間、想像。螢幕還是 2D，可是數位開始走出螢幕了（破格 if you will）。世貿一館還多了整個機器人展區——Computex 今年明顯出走了。

03 — 未來主義 + 永續

作為科技藝術的推崇者，我太喜歡 2026 對於未來主義的呈現，這跟我們以前看到的 60 年代美感不同，是全新的樣貌——會呼吸的數位花、溫柔護眼的霓虹色階。設計師們沒有迴避霓虹與苔蘚、螢幕與土壤之間的矛盾，而是把矛盾做成了整體氛圍。我們正在創造全新的東西。

04 — 黃仁勳

如今他就是全球科技界最火紅的 IP，簽名人潮、周邊商品、現場能量、迷因——這是追星無誤。有人非常刻意地把這個人打造成科技界的 IP，就像 K-pop 打造偶像那樣。但誰能不愛台語、英文流利的宅男！！！
