The wearable will also be able to check what's in the fridge and suggest meals. Samsung previewed the Galaxy Ring at MWC 2024 but told us little about what...
This means that Samsung wants to provide meals and diet suggestions using the smart ring.
Galaxy Ring will monitor your activity during the day, and then Samsung Food, linked to a smart Samsung fridge with AI vision, will provide diet suggestions based on calorie consumption and body mass index (BMI).
In a real futuristic home where the Samsung oven is also linked, the appliance will apply the cooking temperature and time accordingly, and ingredients can also be delivered through the Samsung e-Food center.
I used to love smart things. I don’t have the give a shit to set up a local voice assistant and do not trust the companies who put out smart things. So now I have the smart bulbs and can turn the lights on and off with an app, but nothing else.
It’s such a shame. All of this stuff would be useful and amazing in an ideal world, where every company was forced into using interoperable standards, no one was harvesting your personal data, and no one was taking deals to promote specific options for profit.
It’s 2024. Fuck the hype “future tech” from the past: the jetpacks, hoverboards, flying cars etc. Where are all the quality of life improvements technology was supposed to bring?
Like, it’s how many years since voice assistants became a thing, and as far as I know the first real useful option for a locally hosted non-data siphoning one is what the Home Assistant project rolled out last year. That still needs a good bunch of hands on tinkering to be useful, and even more to be able to use it outside your home.
How about, Fuck No?
I don’t want smart appliances. I don’t even want a smart TV.
Agreed, as soon as a diy company starts making affordable CRTs with modern I/O, I’ll invest every penny I can
