smart refrigerator

Samsung is taking AI out of phones and laptops and placing it directly into the kitchen. At CES 2026, the company plans to unveil refrigerators and other appliances powered by Google Gemini, using cameras and cloud intelligence to track food, manage inventory, and suggest actions. While some design upgrades solve real problems, the deeper push toward cloud based AI inside everyday appliances raises new questions about control, longevity, and whether consumers actually want this level of intelligence watching what they eat.
