AI Wash

I had to buy a new washer recently, and it has a feature on it called “AI Wash” alongside every other pre-existing feature on the washer.

The “AI Wash” feature detects the load weight, soil level, and fabric softness and then determines how best to run.

I can also connect it to my phone and remotely start a wash cycle (I’m guessing this is so I can use my washer during off-peak times in the electricity).

I have tried either of these features yet and have so many more questions on how they run.

But I did have the hose disconnect from the plumbing stack while it was draining, and water went absolutely everywhere – sadly, no AI was able to detect that and stop draining, which is too bad.

Maybe that could be in v2, until then, it’s just a wash.
