It is hard to find any business or niche these days that is not being directly influenced by artificial intelligence. This tech is getting more and more impressive, seemingly with each passing day. Some of the AI models being developed now can help you around the house, and many individuals and families are embracing them.
For instance, you can set up a smart house relatively easily that can do all kinds of things for you. The tasks you assign it may vary depending on your needs, but you might wonder once you have it up and running how you ever got along without it.
Let’s talk about some of the tasks you can assign to your smart house right now.
A Smart Thermostat
A smart thermostat is a must-have in any modern home. You can get one of the different models on the market, and they are not very expensive, either.
Once you have it installed, you might assign it to run certain routines depending on atmospheric factors. For instance, you may set it to run at a higher temperature automatically during the summer when you’re not there. When you’re about to come home from work, it will drop back down to a comfortable level, so it’s nice and cool when you walk in the door.
Since you’re not keeping the house at a cooler temperature when you’re not there, you’ll save money on your energy bills. You can do something similar during the colder months as well.
A Smart Doorbell
You might also have a doorbell that rings in a different way, depending on who is out there. You can assign an Amazon delivery driver a different ring than one of your relatives, for instance. The doorbell will recognize who has arrived and respond accordingly.
You can look on your phone and see a live feed of who is on your doorstep. This way, if it’s an ex who you’re trying to avoid or a salesperson, you can hide from them inside till they go away.
You can also talk to someone on the doorstep through the intercom in the doorbell. If you’re working from home and on a Zoom call, you can direct the delivery person to leave your package there. You can also keep an eye on it to make sure no porch pirates try to steal it before you can go out there and grab it.
Smart Locks and Lights
All on the same convenient app on your smartphone, you can also have a routine for your lights and door locks. You can direct your living room lights to come on in the evening and to turn off automatically when you go to bed.
You can also unlock your door with your phone. That comes in handy if it’s raining and you want the door unlocked when you’re dashing in from the car.
It’s easy to imagine how much easier and more convenient your life can become when you install and implement AI in your home.
