This $1,500 robot cooks dinner while I work

"As I'm sitting in my office writing this review, delicious, cheesy, garlicky scents are wafting up the stairs. I can hear whizzing and whirring, and the occasional clunk, as a robot chef in my kitchen is making macaroni and cheese. Its app tells me there are three minutes left in the process, and based on the snapshot it's showing, the dish looks like a creamy pile of cheesy goodness."

"Meet Posha, my latest foray into the fascinating world of smart kitchen gadgets. Posha is a $1,500 countertop cooking appliance with a $15 monthly subscription that uses AI computer vision, a robotic stirring arm, and automated food and spice dispensers to autonomously cook a meal from start to finish. It's an absurd luxury, too dependent on the internet, and feels like a first-gen device in many ways."

"It took me less than five minutes to load the mac and cheese ingredients into Posha, and the robot handled the rest: sauteing some garlic, pouring in the milk, flinging in the pasta, filling it up with water to cook the pasta, then adding the cheese and stirring it all into a thick, gooey mass. The result was that, even during my 10-hour workday, I could still offer my daughter a tasty home-cooked meal at 4:30PM, when she got back from school."

Posha is a countertop cooking appliance priced at $1,500 with a $15 monthly subscription. It uses AI computer vision, a robotic stirring arm, and automated food and spice dispensers to autonomously cook meals from start to finish. Users load ingredients in minutes, and the device performs tasks like sautéing, pouring milk, adding pasta and water, cooking, and stirring in cheese. A copilot mode keeps food warm and stirs occasionally until serving. The device can save hours compared with stovetop cooking and produces meals that taste better than microwaved boxed options. Posha is internet-dependent and resembles a first-generation product in some aspects.
