🤖𝗔𝗜 𝗛𝘆𝗽𝗲: 𝗔𝗿𝗲 𝗪𝗲 𝗢𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗱𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗜𝘁? Today’s AI features seem overhyped. Yet, paradoxically, the AI industry itself remains underappreciated. I've noticed AI being touted in nearly every new product claiming to disrupt the market. Just last week, I had to buy a new fridge, and the salesman spent 15 minutes trying to sell me on one with AI. He passionately explained what AI means and how it would "know what I want to eat." 😂😂😂 This isn't an isolated case. We see AI pillows that detect your snoring patterns, AI washing machines that "learn" from your laundry, AI mirrors, and even AI toothbrushes. Companies seem pressured by investors and shareholders to add AI to attract attention and investment. Most of the time unsuccessfully 🤷🏻 It reminds me of past trends where everything was labeled “smart”, “green”, “bio”, or “turbo”. Unless these AI features provide real value to customers, they're just marketing gimmicks. For now, my regular fridge suits me just fine—it's big, it’s nice, and it meets my real needs. 😊 #AI #TechHype #Innovation #CustomerValue
Not every company!!
The AI/ML/Data Science is underappreciated these days since AI is associated automatically with LLM's and Diffusers hype by the large public. I assume the fridge with AI embedded was able to recognize what is stored inside and able talk to you recommended recipes based on content ? 😀
Hate it
AI has become like a ketchup, everyone keeps sprinkling it in every thing. Previously, companies used to add "Tech", but now "AI" is the new buzzword.
Eduardo, the question everyone wants to ask is: does the AI fridge cool and freezes the food? 😅
I like my roomba, but I love my cordless shark vacuum.
Passionate about creating great teams and great products
1y"Most of the time unsuccessfully": because more often than not the "AI" in the product does not address a pain point. In some where it does its questionable wether non-AI approaches wouldnt be able to achieve the same. As "AI" describes just the tool, it doesnt really matter to the user, the term subsequentially degrading to "just a marketing buzzword".
