You can't see a benefit to a washing machine that can wash clothes without you needing to figure out how much soap to add or how many rinse cycles it needs?
I genuinely pity anyone so influenced by marketing that they can't look at what a feature actually does before deciding they hate it.
Those features are literally unrelated to AI, just so you know. It’s comparing sensor outputs to a table. Like all modern laundry machines. The inclusion of “AI” on the label is purely to take advantage of people like you who instantly believe whatever they’re told, even of it’s as outlandish as “your laundry has been optimized” lol
Yeah, I know how it works, and I also know how different types of AI work.
It's a field from the 50s concerned with making systems that perceive their environment and change how they execute their tasks based on those perceptions to maximize the fulfillment of their task.
Yes, all modern laundry machines utilize AI techniques involving interpolation of sensor readings into a lookup table to pick wash parameters more intelligently.
You've let sci-fi notions of what AI is get you mad at a marketing department for realizing that we're back to being able to label AI stuff correctly.
The fact that you’ve been reduced to blabbering about such mundane things in the style of “the ghosts in pac-man technically had AI” tells us everything we need to know here. Have fun arguing with me in the shower about whether or not current trends are just a result of marketing executives finally being liberated to appropriately label the AI they’ve been using for 70 years
Cool story bro. Keep being angry about the meaning of words I guess, if it makes you happy.
Thanks for the kind words, have fun “leveraging machine learning techniques” to “figure out” how much detergent you need
I love these technical discussions. Just kicking each other in the nuts over and over.
