minus-squareLost_My_Mind@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·2 months agoYa know what pfoduct MIGHT be better with AI? Toasters. They have ONE JOB, and everybody agrees their toaster is crap. But you’re not going to buy another toaster, because that too will be crap. How about a toaster, that accurately, and evenly toasts your bread, and then DOESN’T give you a heart attack at 5am when you’re still half asleep??? IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK???
minus-squareT156@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·2 months agoNah. We already have AI toasters, and they’re ambitious, but rubbish. Adding AI is just serious overkill for a toaster, especially when it wouldn’t add anything meaningful, not compared to just designing the toaster better.

AI toasters are a Bad Idea
