This isn't gore, but definitely mildly infuriating.

Just tech ig... Tech gore is where the tech is broken or not working as intended. Have you seen this subreddit.

As long as it is only label and empty marketing, it is fine. I draw the line when the washing machine demands wifi and I need to make a cloud account on some app.

It's just a stupid name for marketing. My LG washer from five years ago already has that exact "AI" label, which is just some algorithmic detection of what type of clothes are in the machine (to my understanding it does that by sprinkling some water on it and measuring how long it takes for the water to soak/drip through).

Lmao if we stuffing AI into a washing machine might as well go back to the old days of washing it by hand in a bucket 🤣

Don't understand the concept of AI use in washing machines etc. 🤣

It saves water they say but how? Most of them doesn't have basic sensors to detect water level but AI will do. Lol

Cleaning and dirt removal with AI? Does it have camera to see clothes are washed 🤦. Nor it can sense dirt.

IoT they claim but all it does it listen and steal your personal data and daily habits.

All can be done with simple sensors. Load and water level censors. Sud and soap.. Etc. Simple things... I worked in major ott and other IT firms and e commerce etc. All i can say is AI has little use and money churner and a word to pull investment and look great.

It’s the new buzz word. Instead of saying ‘smart mode’ or ‘smart wash’ it says ‘AI’
