In the future, refrigerators will have AI connected cameras in them you’ll have to pay subscriptions to refrigerate your food. Put a frozen pizza in your freezer without paying for the frozen pizza addon and your freezer will shut off.

A fridge has a simple job to do. Keep the inside cool. The challenge of building a fridge is building a fridge that can run continously for years, if not decades without fail. We have mostly solved that problem, it doesn’t need any smart logic or any fancy operating system to work.

Well, can’t say I feel sorry for people willingly buying smart fridges. I am waiting for the day when they complain that their smart toilet won’t let them take a shit in it.
