    AI has been impacting the smart home industry at least since AI-powered face recognition in surveillance cameras. I think another interesting field of application is sentiment analysis, i.e. based on how you feel to automatically adjust room climate, lighting, etc. to “lighten the mood”. Otherwise, the AI inside both vac and mop bots can only improve, I feel they are unimpressive right now.

      Ehhhhhh, that’s not quite AI. Unless you count face focus tracking on your 2007 point-and-shoot digital camera also as AI. That’s more machine learning, or in some cases neural nets.
