Oh my God, when will they give up trying to make "smart" devices a thing!?! Literally no one uses them! It's something like 20% of smart appliances ever get connected to the internet which is good since they're a massive hacking risk

Slapping ai buzzwords on a vacuum doesn't make the idea of a wifi enabled vacuum more enticing. Not to mention, why on earth would someone who was interested in idiot trap tech like that ever buy a sick vacuum over a Roomba? It's like every appliance manufacturer lives in a fallout bunker with how out of touch they are
