A but not I
Intelligence : In my book it relates to the capacity to autonomously and continually adapt to ones surroundings. It is first and foremost a skill that helps us continue to survive. Intelligence is the thing that kicks in when instinct has reached its limits.
Since none of these objects are anything but Pseudo Code wrapped up with a synthetic voice, it appears as though the intelligence part has been completely forgotten. In reality they are nothing more than the equivalent of "Multi-Mixers" pretending that the chore of cooking will completely disappear thanks to the wonderful technology inside. Pure and utter bullshit.
These machines are really nothing more than household appliances performing an extremely small and minor task. I would give more credit to the inventor of the spoon.
What's more worrying is the quantity of people who actually believe in this nonsense.
Biting the hand that feeds IT
