Samsung's new Bespoke AI product line introduces smart home appliances with features like text alerts and trivia games. Other brands, like GE and LG, are launching AI-driven products, yet consumer interest appears tepid. Industry analysts suggest that companies may be leveraging AI for media attention at trade shows, testing various features without clear customer demand. Despite the technological advancements, surveys indicate that many consumers are not fully convinced of the necessity for such smart enhancements, prompting questions about their practicality and real value in everyday use.
"Every year at CES, you will see appliance makers come out with a new whiz bang feature. And for the last few years, connectivity and AI have been those features."
"Companies are embracing AI partly because they want to make fancy new objects to gain attention. Appliances with smart features are part of a media buzz strategy."
