Samsung has launched a new vacuum that uses AI to identify the exact kind of floor it's on, and it has convinced me – if there could be any doubt – that not every appliance or gadget needs AI.
The Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Ultra is designed to be able to sense its exact environment, so it can determine whether it's on a hard floor, a regular carpet, a deep pile carpet, or a rug. It can also sense when it's close to the corner of a room, and if it's been lifted up. It uses all this information to adjust its suction and brushroll speed for the most efficient clean.
